Missing an update to hwprobe.rst.

Please read the ordering comment above this structure!
Also, you're missing dt-binding documentation for the extension.

Order looks off here too, I think this should be added in in the same
order as to riscv_isa_ext, although the requirement isn't hard here,
just that adding to the end of a list means it's annoying to check for
what's missing.
