[V6,0/2] riscv: mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support

Message

This patchset adds soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking 
support for RISC-V.

This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty, 
madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass,
and no regressions are observed in any of the other tests.

This patchset applies on top of v6.15-rc1.

V6:
- Changes to use bits 59-60 which are supported by extension Svrsw60t59b [1]
  for soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking.

V5:
- Fixed typos and corrected some words in Kconfig and commit message;
- Removed pte_wrprotect() from pte_swp_mkuffd_wp(), this is a copy-paste error;
- Added Alex's Reviewed-by tag in patch 2.

V4:
- Added bit(4) descriptions into "Format of swap PTE".

V3:
- Fixed the issue reported by kernel test irobot <[e-mail]>.

V1 -> V2:
- Add uffd-wp supported;
- Make soft-dirty uffd-wp and devmap mutually exclusive which all use the same PTE bit;
- Add test results of CRIU in the cover-letter.

This should be an RFC patchset, we should be able to enable these two
features only when the extension Svrsw60t59b is valid, I will add that
check in the next version of patchset.

Thanks,
