When fp-pidbench was originally written SVE hardware was not widely
available so it was useful to run it in emulation and the default number
of loops was set very low, running for less than a second on actual
hardware. Now that SVE hardware is reasonably available it is very much
less interesting to use emulation, bump the default number of loops up to
even out a bit of the noise on real systems. On the machine I have to hand
this now takes about 15s which is still a toy microbenchmark but perhaps a
bit more useful.

Some applications use SVE intermittently, one common case being where SVE
is used during statup (eg, by ld.so) but then rarely if ever during the
main application runtime. Add a repeat of the no SVE loop after we've done
the SVE loops to fp-pidbench to capture results for that.

- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

On a system which support SME but not SVE we can now disable streaming mode
via ptrace by writing FPSIMD formatted data through NT_ARM_SVE with a VL of
0. Extend fp-ptrace to cover rather than skip these cases, relax the check
for SVE writes of FPSIMD format data to not skip if SME is supported and
accept 0 as the VL when performing the ptrace write.

The zt-test output is awkward to read, as the 'Expected' value isn't
dumped on its own line and isn't aligned with the 'Got' value beneath.
For example:
Mismatch: PID=5281, iteration=3270249 Expected [00a1146901a1146902a1146903a1146904a1146905a1146906a1146907a1146908a1146909a114690aa114690ba114690ca114690da114690ea114690fa11469]

SVCR: 2
Add a newline, matching the other FPSIMD/SVE/SME tests, so that we get
output that can be read more easily:
Mismatch: PID=5281, iteration=3270249
Expected [00a1146901a1146902a1146903a1146904a1146905a1146906a1146907a1146908a1146909a114690aa114690ba114690ca114690da114690ea114690fa11469]

Admittedly this isn't all that important when the 'Got' value is all
zeroes, but otherwise this would be a major help for identifying which
portion of the 'Got' value is not as expected.

In fp-trace when allocating a buffer to write SVE register data we open
code the addition of the header size to the VL depeendent register data
size, which lead to an underallocation bug when we cut'n'pasted the code
for FPSIMD format writes. Use the SVE_PT_SIZE() macro that the kernel
UAPI provides for this.

The ABI for disabling streaming mode via ptrace is to do a write via the
SVE register set. Following the recent round of fixes to the ptrace code
we don't support this operation on systems without SVE, which is detected
as failures by fp-ptrace. Update the program so that it knows that this
operation is not currently supported.

fp-ptrace does not handle SME only systems correctly when generating data,
on SME only systems scenarios where we are not in streaming mode will not
have an expected vector length. This leads to attempts to do memcpy()s of
zero byte arrays which can crash, fix this by skipping generation of SVE
data for cases where we do not expect to have an active vector length.

The NT_ARM_SVE register set supports two data formats, the native SVE one
and an alternative format where we embed a copy of user_fpsimd_data as used
for NT_PRFPREG in the SVE register set. The register data is set as for a
write to NT_PRFPREG and changes in vector length and streaming mode are
handled as for any NT_ARM_SVE write. This has not previously been tested by
fp-ptrace, add coverage of it.
We do not support writes in FPSIMD format for NT_ARM_SSVE so we skip the
test for anything that would leave us in streaming mode.
