If we are generating TLB exception expecting separate vectors, we must

Very lightly tested, but it seems to make my XI and RI tests work on
OCTEON II CPUs, which have the C0_Pagegrain[IEC] bit.

David, I think it is still better to use set_c0_pagegrain() because
PageGrain has a lot of RW bits now and clear all of them may be not
good.
IMHO all the code that sets PageGrain should be in this function. We
should calculate all the bits here that should be set, and set them.
The whole reason that we have this mess, is that we were setting the
bits at different code sites, and clobbering them in others.
If *all* the PageGrain logic is in one place, we won't have this problem.
If you think this patch is incorrect, then we should revert the other
two and take our time to carefully do something that is correct.

No, I don't see this patch as incorrect. It is just about coding
assumptions but I don't think it is serious, so you variant is OK.
