As observed during review the pKVM support for saving host SVE state is
broken if an asymmetric system has VLs larger than the maximum shared
VL, fix this by discovering then using the maximum VL for allocations
and using RDVL during the save/restore process.
Fuad posted[1] another attempt to address this issues but as indicated
in review I have maintanability concerns since the VL configuration does
not follow best practices and the enumeration is not well integrated
with the rest of the enumeration code. I also posted[2] an alternative
which restricts the host to the maximum shared VL.
This bug has persisted for multiple kernel releases at this point in
spite of being identified prior the original patch being applied.
