ppc: Fix tlb invalidations on 6xx/7xx/7xxx 32-bit processors
The processor only uses some bits of the address and invalidates an entire congruence class. Some OSes such as Darwin and HelenOS take advantage of this and occasionally invalidate the entire TLB by just doing a series of 64 consecutive tlbie for example. Our code tries to be too smart here only invalidating a segment congruence class (ie, allowing more address bits to be relevant in the invalidation), this fails miserably on those OSes. Instead don't bother, do like ppc64 and blow the whole tlb when tlbie is executed.
