Dave Martin ecfb6ed4f6 KVM: arm64/sve: Explain validity checks in set_sve_vls()
Correct virtualization of SVE relies for correctness on code in
set_sve_vls() that verifies consistency between the set of vector
lengths requested by userspace and the set of vector lengths
available on the host.

However, the purpose of this code is not obvious, and not likely to
be apparent at all to people who do not have detailed knowledge of
the SVE system-level architecture.

This patch adds a suitable comment to explain what these checks are
for.

No functional change.

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.
