+ The standard Supm extension for pointer masking support in user
+ mode (U-mode) as ratified at commit d70011dde6c2 ("Update to
+ ratified state") of riscv-j-extension.
+
+ Supm represents a combination of underlying hardware capability
+ (Smnpm or Ssnpm), U-mode consumer privilege level, and M/S-mode
+ software configuration that enables pointer masking for U-mode.
+
+ DO NOT include this property in device trees targeting privileged
+ system software (S-mode or M-mode).
+
+ This property is only appropriate in device trees provided to
+ U-mode software where the next-higher-privilege-mode supports
+ Smnpm or Ssnpm and enables it for U-mode.
