A hash shift based on page size is used to calculate the index of an entry in the TSB. copy_tsb has hard coded PAGE_SHIFT in these calculations. However, for huge page TSBs the value REAL_HPAGE_SHIFT should be used. As a result, when copy_tsb is called for a huge page TSB the entries are placed at the incorrect index in the newly allocated TSB. When doing hardware table walk, the MMU does not match these entries and we end up in the TSB miss handling code. This code will then create and write an entry to the correct index in the TSB. We take a performance hit for the table walk miss and recreation of these entries. Pass a new parameter to copy_tsb that is the page size shift to be used when copying the TSB.
