As the SME state size can vary at runtime, we don't have a concrete type
for the in-memory SME state, and pass this around using a pointer to
void.

Using pointer to void means that it's very easy to introduce errors that
cannot be caught by the compiler (e.g. as 'void **' can be assigned to
'void *').

Improve this by adding an opaque 'struct arm64_sme_state', and
consistently passing a pointer to this.
