[PATCH v1] riscv: support arch_has_hw_pte_young()

The arch_has_hw_pte_young() is false for riscv by default. If it's
false, page table walk is almost skipped for MGLRU reclaim. And it
will also cause useless step in __wp_page_copy_user().
RISC-V Privileged Book says that riscv have two schemes to manage A
and D bit.
So add a config for selecting, the default is true. For simple
implementation riscv CPU which just generate page fault, unselect it.

+ Select if hardware set A bit when PTE is accessed. The default is
+ 'Y', because most RISC-V CPU hardware can manage A and D bit.
