arm64: fpsimd: Fix type mismatch in sme_{save,load}_state()
The sme_save_state() and sme_load_state() functions take a 32-bit int argument that describes whether to save/restore ZT0. Their assembly implementations consume the entire 64-bit register containing this 32-bit value, and will attempt to save/restore ZT0 if any bit of that 64-bit register is non-zero. Per the AAPCS64 parameter passing rules, the callee is responsible for any necessary widening, and the upper 32-bits are permitted to contain arbitrary values. If the upper 32 bits are non-zero, this could result in an unexpected attempt to save/restore ZT0, and consequently could lead to unexpected traps/undefs/faults. In practice compilers are very unlikely to generate code where the upper 32-bits would be non-zero, but they are permitted to do so. Fix this by only consuming the low 32 bits of the register, and update comments accordingly.
