'tlbivax' is implemented by gen_tlbivax_booke206() via
gen_helper_booke206_tlbivax(). In case the TLB needs to be flushed,
booke206_invalidate_ea_tlb() is called. All these functions, but
booke206_invalidate_ea_tlb(), uses a 64-bit effective address 'ea'.

booke206_invalidate_ea_tlb() uses an uint32_t 'ea' argument that
truncates the original 'ea' value for apparently no particular reason.
This function retrieves the tlb pointer by calling booke206_get_tlbm(),
which also uses a target_ulong address as parameter - in this case, a
truncated 'ea' address. All the surrounding logic considers the
effective TLB address as a 64 bit value, aside from the signature of
booke206_invalidate_ea_tlb().

Last but not the least, PowerISA 2.07B section 6.11.4.9 [2] makes it
clear that the effective address "EA" is a 64 bit value.

Commit 01662f3e5133 introduced this code and no changes were made ever
since. An user detected a problem with tlbivax [1] stating that this
address truncation was the cause. This same behavior might be the source
of several subtle bugs that were never caught.

For all these reasons, this patch assumes that this address truncation
is the result of a mistake/oversight of the original commit, and changes
booke206_invalidate_ea_tlb() 'ea' argument to 'vaddr'.

I forgot to add Alexander in the CC. Sorry for the extra noise.

It looks correct. I am not sure why we introduced PPC_TLBIVAX since
we don't use it for the instruction. But e200 needs it AFAICT.

Any how,

Queued for 6.2
