riscv: mm: use svinval instructions instead of sfence.vma
When svinval is supported the local_flush_tlb_page*
functions would prefer to use the following sequence
to optimize the tlb flushes instead of a simple sfence.vma:
sfence.w.inval
svinval.vma
.
.
svinval.vma
sfence.inval.ir
The maximum number of consecutive svinval.vma instructions
that can be executed in local_flush_tlb_page* functions is
limited to PTRS_PER_PTE. This is required to avoid soft
lockups and the approach is similar to that used in arm64.
