Linux kernel source tree

When the effective value of PSTATE.SM is changed from 0 to 1 or from 1
to 0 by any method, an entry or exit to/from streaming SVE mode is
performed, and hardware automatically resets a number of registers. As
of ARM DDI 0487 L.a, this means:
* All implemented bits of the SVE vector registers are set to zero.
* All implemented bits of the SVE predicate registers are set to zero.
* All implemented bits of FFR are set to zero, if FFR is implemented in
the new mode.
* FPSR is set to 0x0000_0000_0800_009f.
* FPMR is set to 0, if FPMR is implemented.
Currently task_fpsimd_load() restores FPMR before restoring SVCR (which
is an accessor for PSTATE.{SM,ZA}), and so the restored value of FPMR
may be clobbered if the restored value of PSTATE.SM happens to differ
from the initial value of PSTATE.SM.
Fix this by moving the restore of FPMR later.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
