Ok, I got a refresher on the whole concept of "unpopulated TLB entries"
on 8xx, and that's damn scary. I think what mislead me initially is that
the comment around the workaround is simply not properly describing the
extent of the problem :-)

So I'm not going to make the 8xx TLB miss code sane, that's beyond what
I'm prepare to do with it, but I suspect that this should fix it (on top
of upstream). Let me know if that's enough or if we also need to put
one of these in ptep_set_access_flags().

Please let me know if that works for you.

Cheers,
Ben.
