None of the above changes are needed. We are not changing anything w.r.t
4k linux page table yet. So we can drop this.

Converting that to helper is also not needed in this patch. Leave it as
it is. It is much easier to review.

Should we name that hpte_slot_invalid() ? ie. s/soft/slot/ ?

What is the last arg flags here ? I guess we need to pass 0 there ?
We can't do a local = 1 invalidate, because we don't know whether
anybody did really access this address in between and has got the entry
in TLB.

Can you add a comment around explaining invalid slot always result in
removing from primary ? Also do we want to store that invalid slot
details in a variable ? instead of doing that conditional again and
again ? This is hotpath.

What is this change ? i guess we want this in second patch ?
