Also it was added explanation about ignoring of top VA bits

Signed-off-by: Oleksii Kurochko <oleksii.kurochko@gmail.com>
---
Changes in V8:
 - Add "#ifdef RV_STAGE1_MODE == SATP_MODE_SV39" instead of "#ifdef SV39"
   in the comment to VM layout description.
 - Update the upper bound of direct map area in VM layout description.
---
Changes in V7:
 - Fix range of frametable range in RV64 layout.
 - Add ifdef SV39 to the RV64 layout comment to make it explicit that
   description if for SV39 mode.
 - Add missed row in the RV64 layout table.
---
Changes in V6:
 - update comment above the RISCV-64 layout table
 - add Slot column to the table with RISCV-64 Layout
 - update RV-64 layout table.
---
Changes in V5:
* the patch was introduced in the current patch series.

Nit: #if please, not #ifdef. Also may I stress again that ideally this
would be formatted such that when e.g. grep-ing for SATP_MODE_SV39, the
matching line here would _not_ give the impression of being "a comment
only" (making people possibly pay less attention)? My referral to the
x86 way of doing things remains.

And another, yet more minor nit: Would be nice if all addresses here
were spelled uniformly, i.e. also with upper vs lower case of hex
digit letter consistent.

Oh, I double checked the x86's config.h and understood ( my editor's
colour scheme draw it as a comment so I missed that there is no '*' at
the start if "#ifndef CONFIG_BIGMEM" line ) what you mean:
  '*' should be removed at the start of "#ifdef RV..." line.

Sure. I will make all upper case. Thanks.
