Adds support to dynamically detect the presence of the SVPBMT extension
(Supervisor-mode: page-based memory types) and enable its usage.
Adds support to dynamically detect the presence of the SVPBMT
ISA-extension (Supervisor-mode: page-based memory types) and
enable its usage.

The memory type for a page contains a combination of attributes
that indicate the cacheability, idempotency, and ordering
properties for access to that page.

The SVPBMT extension is only available on 64Bit cpus.
