+            The standard Svade supervisor-level extension for SW-managed PTE A/D
+            bit updates as ratified in the 20240213 version of the privileged
+            ISA specification.
+
+            Both Svade and Svadu extensions control the hardware behavior when
+            the PTE A/D bits need to be set. The default behavior for the four
+            possible combinations of these extensions in the device tree are:
+            1) Neither Svade nor Svadu present in DT => It is technically
+               unknown whether the platform uses Svade or Svadu. Supervisor
+               software should be prepared to handle either hardware updating
+               of the PTE A/D bits or page faults when they need updated.
+            2) Only Svade present in DT => Supervisor must assume Svade to be
+               always enabled.
+            3) Only Svadu present in DT => Supervisor must assume Svadu to be
+               always enabled.
+            4) Both Svade and Svadu present in DT => Supervisor must assume
+               Svadu turned-off at boot time. To use Svadu, supervisor must
+               explicitly enable it using the SBI FWFT extension.
