If you are asking why I am not just looping over the hcall argument
@pg_sizes bitmask then, I was doing that in my earlier version. But
David suggested that it would be good to have page size encodings
of H_RPT_INVALIDATE within mmu_pgsize_defs[]. Based on this, I am
populating mmu_pgsize_defs[] during radix page size initialization
and using that here to check for those page sizes that have been set
in @pg_sizes.

Yes, I could easily move it there.

I see. So we have to do explicit flushing for different page sizes
only if we are doing range based invalidation (IS=0). For rest of
the cases (IS=1/2/3), that's not necessary.

Sure.

Yes, makes sense. I shall do this and the above as later optimizations.
