Umm, isn't it the other way around? tlbie flushes one TLB whereas tlbia flushes
all TLBs.

yes, but I think these operates on physical addresses which makes it a bit
harder.
I still think this can be resolved in fault.c. Replace
andis. r11, r10, 0x0200 /* If set, indicates store op */
beq 2f
in the DTLB Error handler with
andis. r11, r10, 0x4800 /* If set, indicates invalid pte or
protection violation */
bne 2f
In fault.c you can check if both store and invalid is set simultaneously. If it
is, clear
the store flag and continue as usual.
