[PATCH v2 06/10] riscv: Explicit comment about user virtual address space size

[Alexandre Ghiti <alexandre.ghiti@canonical.com>]

Define precisely the size of the user accessible virtual space size
for sv32/39/48 mmu types and explain why the whole virtual address
space is split into 2 equal chunks between kernel and user space.
