I need *some* definition so that sve_user_reset() in the syscall path
can compile without ifdeferry. 

In sve_user_reset() I first check system_supports_sve(), which checks
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64_SVE), so the call should be optimised away when
!CONFIG_ARM64_SVE, but I need a prototype regardless.

We already rely on BUILD_BUG() not firing in paths that can be trivially
optimized away. e.g. in the cmpxchg code.

Ah. I've restored that now.

Thanks,
