Currently, the memremap() called with MEMREMAP_WB maps memory using
the generic ioremap() function which breaks on system with Svpbmt
because memory mapped using _PAGE_IOREMAP page attributes is treated
as strongly-ordered non-cacheable IO memory.
To address this, we implement RISC-V specific arch_memremap_wb()
which maps memory using _PAGE_KERNEL page attributes resulting in
write-back cacheable mapping on systems with Svpbmt.
Fixes: ff689fd21c ("riscv: add RISC-V Svpbmt extension support")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
