Currently, we use PGD mappings for early DTB mapping in early_pgd
but this breaks Linux kernel on SiFive Unleashed because on SiFive
Unleashed PMP checks don't work correctly for PGD mappings.

To fix early DTB mappings on SiFive Unleashed, we use non-PGD
mappings (i.e. PMD) for early DTB access.

We're starting to build up a handful of workarounds for these sorts of things.
The PMP trap vs WARL one was the last I could remember, but that's a bit
different as both of those behaviors were allowed by specifications at some
point.  IIRC there were also some TLB shootdown issues floating

The best I can come up with is to add both some sort of "minimum support
specification version" Kconfig entry and an "quirks" set of Kconfig entries.
That would allow us to gradually jettison old ISAs as well as more cleanly add
support for broken hardware like this.

Do you have a pointer to some datasheet type document that describes the issue?
That'd probably be the line I'd like to draw for adding workarounds like this,
as otherwise we can't really be sure something is a hardware issue.

That said, it's better to have the fix so this is on fixes.  I'll try to
remember it for the list of workarounds.

Thanks!
