Is "!cmd->tlbi.leaf" to be "leaf" or "non-leaf"?

IIUIC, this "num_pages == 1" implies "NUM == 0, SCALE == 0" while
the "!cmd->tlbi.leaf" implies "TTL = 0b00", which in combination
would result in a CERROR_ILL mentioned by the spec?

I feel this could be more clear by just checking the three fields
following the spec...
