The slbfee. instruction must have bit 24 of RB clear, failure to do
so can result in false negatives that result in incorrect assertions.

This is not obvious from the ISA v3.0B document, which only says:

    The hardware ignores the contents of RB 36:38 40:63 -- p.1032

This patch fixes the bug and also clears all other bits from PPC bit
36-63, which is good practice when dealing with reserved or ignored
bits.

I guess these numbers '28' are derived from the size of the smallest
segment we support. If co can we use ESID_MASK?
