For native build, we will need to specify -Dplatform for cn10k so that sve_acle
can be disabled for this only. Currently performance impact of SVE_ACLE vs Neon
is checked on cn10k only, not sure about other platforms, hence not done
default SVE ACLE disabled for all platforms.
For cn10k, implementor and part number is same as with N2, so not done required
changes at that level.
In future, if performance impact is same for other platforms too then we can
have this solution based on implementor ID or part number.
