Since we are using -1 as an invalid flag, it would be better to change
penc[] to be an array of int (or signed int) rather than unsigned
int.  That would eliminate a few (signed int) casts in your subsequent
patches.

The memory reference for mmu_psize_defs[MMU_PAGE_4K].shift seems
unnecessary here.  Just use LP_SHIFT, same as when you calculated lp.
