QEMU uses a fixed page size for the CPU TLB. If the guest uses large
pages then we effectively split these into multiple smaller pages, and
populate the corresponding TLB entries on demand.
When the guest invalidates the TLB by virtual address we must invalidate
all entries covered by the large page. However the address used to
invalidate the entry may not be present in the QEMU TLB, so we do not
know which regions to clear.
Implementing a full vaiable size TLB is hard and slow, so just keep a
simple address/mask pair to record which addresses may have been mapped by
large pages. If the guest invalidates this region then flush the
whole TLB.

In the very least, a change like this requires discussion on the list.
The naming convention is goofy and it causes a massive merge problem. Something
like this _must_ be presented on the list first so people can provide input
and cope with it.
This reverts commit 99a0949b72.

Original idea&code by Kevin Wolf, split-up in two patches and added more
archs.
This patch introduces a flag to log CPU resets. Useful for tracing
unexpected resets (such as those triggered by x86 triple faults).

The attached patch updates the FSF address in the GPL/LGPL boilerplate
in most GPL/LGPLed files, and also in COPYING.LIB.

allowing support of more than 2 mmu access modes.
Add backward compatibility is_user variable in targets code when needed.
Implement per target cpu_mmu_index function, avoiding duplicated code
and #ifdef TARGET_xxx in softmmu core functions.
Implement per target mmu modes definitions. As an example, add PowerPC
hypervisor mode definition and Alpha executive and kernel modes definitions.
Optimize PowerPC case, precomputing mmu_idx when MSR register changes
and using the same definition in code translation code.
