[RFC PATCH v3 2/2] riscv: mm: use svinval instructions instead of sfence.vma

When svinval is supported the local_flush_tlb_page*
functions would prefer to use the following sequence
to optimize the tlb flushes instead of a simple sfence.vma:

sfence.w.inval
svinval.vma
  .
  .
svinval.vma
sfence.inval.ir

The maximum number of consecutive svinval.vma instructions
that can be executed in local_flush_tlb_page* functions is
limited to PTRS_PER_PTE. This is required to avoid soft
lockups and the approach is similar to that used in arm64.
