Okay, add the sentence:
The bit 31-29 of any Sv32x4 PTE becomes ignored from address bits when
menvcfg.PBMTE is 1.

Note that in general reserved PTE bits that are non-zero - whether due to the bit still simply being reserved, or it corresponding to an unimplemented extension or to a disabled extension (via *envcfg) - result in a Page Fault exception, i.e. they are not ignored.
