Status of the various RISC-V specification and policy

[Atish Patra]

Hi All,
Please find the below email from Stephano about the freeze announcement for
various RISC-V specifications that will be part of privilege specification
v1.12.
All the review discussions are happening in the isa-dev mailing list. The
review period will be open for 45 days ending Sunday October 31, 2021.

I just want to highlight the fact that the *H*, *V, SvPBMT, CMO extensions
are frozen now. *This will help us merge some patches that have been
present in the mailing list for a while.

Here are the ratification policy and extension life cycle documents present
in the public. If you have any questions regarding this, please check with
Mark/Stephano (cc'd).

Ratification policy:
