Currently the selftest for the SVE register set is not quite as thorough as is desirable - it only validates that the value of a single Z register is not modified by a partial write to a lower numbered Z register after having previously been set through the FPSIMD regset. Make this more thorough: - Test the ability to set vector lengths and enumerate those supported in the system. - Validate data in all Z and P registers, plus FPSR and FPCR. - Test reads via the FPSIMD regset after set via the SVE regset. There's still some oversights, the main one being that due to the need to generate a pattern in FFR and the fact that this rewrite is primarily motivated by SME's streaming SVE which doesn't have FFR we don't currently test FFR. Update the TODO to reflect those that occurred to me (and fix an adjacent typo in there).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
