Make sv48 the default address space for mmap as some applications
currently depend on this assumption. Also enable users to select
desired address space using a non-zero hint address to mmap. Previous
kernel changes caused Java and other applications to be broken on sv57
which this patch fixes.

Documentation is also added to the RISC-V virtual memory section to explain
these changes.
