This is first series in the series of forthcoming patches that
would add support for different access permission for different
sections of OpenSBI (RO, RX, RW). Eventually, this would lead
to support of smepmp extension.

This patch series splits the current R/W/X permissions to
M-mode R/W/X and SU-mode R/W/X. The split is in such a way
that current permission semantics are not broken.
