I'm sure I've spotted the same obvious error in the above before.

I'd also suggest calling it 'invalidate_adjacent_pages' - since that it
what it does.

I also guess that the execution time of 'tlbie' is non-trivial.
So you might as well get rid of the temporary register and put an
'addi' to reset 'addr' at the end.

Forget it, I did a big mistake this morning, involontarily resent an old 
patch.
Sorry for the noise.
