arm64/sve: Document firmware support requirements in Kconfig Use of SVE by EL2 and below requires explicit support in the firmware. There is no means to hide the presence of SVE from EL2, so a kernel configured with CONFIG_ARM64_SVE=y will typically not work correctly on SVE capable hardware unless the firmware does include the appropriate support. This is not expected to pose a problem in the wild, since platform integrators are responsible for ensuring that they ship up-to-date firmware to support their hardware. However, developers may hit the issue when using mismatched compoments. In order to draw attention to the issue and how to solve it, this patch adds some Kconfig text giving a brief explanation and details of compatible firmware versions.
