Currently we check if we are in streaming mode before doing this but since we have a SMSTOP SM instruction which will clear SVCR.SM in a single atomic operation we can save ourselves the read of the system register and check of the flag and just unconditionally do the SMSTOP SM. If we are not in streaming mode it results in a noop change to SVCR, if we are in streaming mode we will exit as desired. No functional change.
