arm64/sme: Don't flush SVE register state when allocating SME storage
Currently when taking a SME access trap we allocate storage for the SVE register state in order to be able to handle storage of streaming mode SVE. Due to the original usage in a purely SVE context the SVE register state allocation this also flushes the register state for SVE if storage was already allocated but in the SME context this is not desirable. For a SME access trap to be taken the task must not be in streaming mode so either there already is SVE register state present for regular SVE mode which would be corrupted or the task does not have TIF_SVE and the flush is redundant. Fix this by adding a flag to sve_alloc() indicating if we are in a SVE context and need to flush the state. Freshly allocated storage is always zeroed either way.
