Our ABI opts to provide future proofing by defining a much larger SVE_VQ_MAX than the architecture actually supports. Since we use this define to control the size of our vector data buffers this results in a lot of overhead when we initialise which can be a very noticable problem in emulation, we fill buffers that are orders of magnitude larger than we will ever actually use even with virtual platforms that provide the full range of architecturally supported vector lengths. Define and use the actual architecture maximum to mitigate this.

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.
