With that, I don't see the hard lockup, but things get stuck during 
bootup with everything idle.  I see this even if I revert everything but 
the "invalidate non present TLBs" patch, and I was seeing similar things 
sometimes with the other tlbil_va hacks.

I think there's something else going on in the 2.6 8xx code that needs 
to be fixed before we can tell what the impact of these patches is. 
I'll look into it.
