mainlining shenanigans

This patch enables detection of hardware SVE support via the cpufeatures framework, and reports its presence to the kernel and userspace via the new ARM64_SVE cpucap and HWCAP_SVE hwcap respectively. Userspace can also detect SVE using ID_AA64PFR0_EL1, using the cpufeatures MRS emulation. When running on hardware that supports SVE, this enables runtime kernel support for SVE, and allows user tasks to execute SVE instructions and make of the of the SVE-specific user/kernel interface extensions implemented by this series.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
