4kB pages are unstable on extended mode TLB, it's recommended
that TLB compat mode be used when using a 4kB PAGE_SIZE. Set

The extended mode TLB requires both 64-bit PTEs and a 64-bit pgprot,
correspondingly, the PGD also has to be 64-bits, so fix that up.
The kernel and user permission bits really are decoupled in early
cuts of the silicon, which means that we also have to set corresponding
kernel permissions on user pages or we end up with user pages that the
kernel simply can't touch (!).
Finally, with those things corrected, really enable MMUCR.ME and
correct the PTEA value (this simply needs to be the upper 32-bits
of the PTE, with the size and protection bit encoding).

Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken. This
set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only.
The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number of
independent processes sharing large shared memory segments. In the normal
page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is quite
significant. For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the primary
objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead
significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb is
to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss.
With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the cache
consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return, application
gets much higher cache hit ratio. One other effect is that cache hit ratio
with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be higher and this
helps to reduce tlb miss latency. These two effects contribute to higher
application performance.

instead of doing it directly.
- I changed the shift in the ipr_data to be the actual # of bits to
shift, instead of the numnber / 4 - made it easier to match with
the manual.

Previously this was using a static pgd shift in the reporting
code, simply flip this to PGDIR_SHIFT which does the right
thing depending on varying PTE magnitudes on the SH-X2 MMU.
While we're at it, and since it's been recently added, use
get_TTB() for fetching the TTB, rather than the open coded
instructions.
