arm64/sve: Remove SMCR pseudo register from cpufeature code



For reasons that are not currently apparent during cpufeature enumeration
we maintain a pseudo register for SMCR which records the maximum supported
vector length using the value that would be written to SMCR_EL1.LEN to
configure it. This is not exposed to userspace and is not sufficient for
detecting unsupportable configurations, we need the more detailed checks in
vec_update_vq_map() for that since we can't cope with missing vector
lengths on late CPUs and KVM requires an exactly matching set of supported
vector lengths as EL1 can enumerate VLs directly with the hardware.

Remove the code, replacing the usage in sme_setup() with a query of the
vq_map.
