I wrote that wrong, we really don't have tlb_pid() what we have is tlb_lpid().

void radix__flush_tlb_lpid(unsigned long lpid)
{
	unsigned long rb,rs,prs,r;
	unsigned long ric = RIC_FLUSH_ALL;

	rb = 0x2 << PPC_BITLSHIFT(53); /* IS = 2 */
	rs = lpid & ((1UL << 32) - 1);
	prs = 0; /* partition scoped */
	r = 1;   /* raidx format */

	asm volatile("ptesync": : :"memory");
	asm volatile(PPC_TLBIE_5(%0, %4, %3, %2, %1)
		     : : "r"(rb), "i"(r), "i"(prs), "i"(ric), "r"(rs) : "memory");
	asm volatile("eieio; tlbsync; ptesync": : :"memory");
}
