In order to access MMIO regions, the kernel must ensure the correct caching mode
is used on it's own.
### riscv64
If the `Svpbmt` extension is available, all framebuffer memory regions are mapped
with `PBMT=NC` to enable write-combining optimizations. The kernel executable,
loaded at or above `0xffffffff80000000`, and all HHDM memory regions are mapped
with the default `PBMT=PMA`.
If the `Svpbmt` extension is not available, no PMAs can be overridden (effectively,
everything is mapped with `PBMT=PMA`).
