Subject: [PATCH 3/3] kselftest/arm64: Add parentheses around sizeof for clarity

From: Vivek Yadav <vivekyadav1207731111@...il.com>

Added parentheses around sizeof to make the expression clearer
and improve readability. This change has no functional impact.

```
[command]
	./scripts/checkpatch.pl tools/testing/selftests/arm64/fp/sve-ptrace.c

[output]
	WARNING: sizeof *sve should be sizeof(*sve)
```

Fixes: 0dca276ac4d20 : selftests: arm64: Add test for the SVE ptrace interface
