Subject: [PATCH 3/3] kselftest/arm64: Specify SVE data when testing VL set
 in sve-ptrace

Since f916dd32a943 ("arm64/fpsimd: ptrace: Mandate SVE payload for
streaming-mode state") we reject attempts to write to the streaming mode
regset even if there is no register data supplied, causing the tests for
setting vector lengths and setting SVE_VL_INHERIT in sve-ptrace to
spuriously fail. Set the flag to avoid the issue, we still support not
supplying register data.
