There isn't really a pattern. I tried to avoid dummy versions where
there's no real reason to have them. I don't _think_ they're really
needed here, unless I missed something. Did you get build failures
without them?

IIUC:

if (0) {
BUILD_BUG_ON(1);
}

can still fire, in which case it's futile checking for CONFIG_ARM64_SVE
in most of the SVE support code.

Anyway, CONFIG_ARM64_SVE doesn't capture the whole condition.

Actually, I was just commenting on the deleted blank line... not that
there is any massive issue with this patch, though.
