So PPC-radix has page-size dependent TLBI, but the above doesn't work
for them, because they use the tlb_change_page_size() interface and
don't look at tlb->cleared_p*().
Concequently, they have their own special magic :/
Nick, how about you use the tlb_change_page_size() interface to
find/flush on the page-size boundaries, but otherwise use the
tlb->cleared_p* flags to select which actual sizes to flush?
AFAICT that should work just fine for you guys. Maybe something like so?
(fwiw, there's an aweful lot of almost identical functions there)
