Here's the difference with this patch (using k0) on an Octeon I have to
hand, with some slightly munged offsets for nicer diffing:

#define _PAGE_READ_SHIFT 0
#define _PAGE_WRITE_SHIFT 1

b4 is apparently where it branches back to the huge page case at the
beginning. In that case the at register (htlb_info.huge_pte) is set to
*(k1+at) instead of *(k1), so loading to htlb_info.huge_pte instead of
k0 would I think be bad and change the behaviour. So forget my suggestion!

On the other hand loading the pte to k0 is redundant when
build_fast_tlb_refill_handler is used (which depends on bbit1), and also
in the other case if bbit1 is available since it won't get clobbered by
build_is_huge_pte().

Maybe the reload should simply be conditional on !use_bbit_insns()?

Cheers
James
