This series enables Svade and Svadu extensions support by configuring the
menvcfg CSR. Both of them control the hardware behavior when the PTE A/D
bits need to be set. Regrading the mailing thread[1], we have 4 possible
combinations of these extensions in the device tree, OpenSBI should
modifiy DT to specify the current hardware behavior before we have SBI
FWFT extension. The 4 possibilities are:

1. Neither svade nor svadu in DT: default to svade.
2. Only svade in DT: use svade.
3. Only svadu in DT: use svadu.
4. Both svade and svadu in DT: default to svade.

This series also add a FDT fixup patch to remove Svadu when both
extensions are present in DT.

v2:
- Rearrange the patches to do the code refactoring first before adding
  new features
- Suggested by Anup and Atish, detect extensions from DT instead of
  menvcfg CSR
- Enable access to some extensions through menvcfg CSR if they are
  present in the device tree.
