In order to reduce the cost of TLB invalidation, ARMv8.4 provides
the TTL field in TLBI instruction. The TTL field indicates the
level of page table walk holding the leaf entry for the address
being invalidated. This series provide support for this feature.

When ARMv8.4-TTL is implemented, the operand for TLBIs looks like
below:

* +----------+-------+----------------------+
* | ASID | TTL | BADDR |
* +----------+-------+----------------------+
* |63 48|47 44|43 0|

See patches for details, Thanks.
