Digging more in  Priv-v1.12/riscv-privileged-20211203.pdf
<https://github.com/riscv/riscv-isa-manual/releases/download/Priv-v1.12/riscv-privileged-20211203.pdf>
 :
Page 82,  Section 4.3.2 Virtual Address Translation Process.

The spec actually mentions an address translation algorithm. Step 2
mentions the exception code should be " access-fault exception
corresponding to the original access type". i.e. 1, 5, 7.  All other steps
should use " page-fault exception corresponding to the original access
type". i.e. 12, 13, 15.

Joseph Chan
