Mostly to make sure we use the right penc values in tlbie. I did test
these changes on PowerNV.

as per ISA doc, for base page size 4K, RB[56:58] must be set to
SLB[L|LP] encoded for the page size corresponding to the actual page
size specified by the PTE that was used to create the the TLB entry to
be invalidated.

As per ISA spec, the "other bits" in RB[56:62] must be ignored by the
processor. Hence I didn't bother to do zero it out. Since we only
support one MPSS combination, we could easily zero out using 0xf0.
