I'm fairly certain you broke the O3 cpu for Alpha FS with this change.  
The TLB returns an access violation on a superpage access when the  
palcode does a hwrei to entSys from callpal_callsys. Something is  
preventing the mode bit from being set and the call reads a stale  
value resulting in an access. The first mtpr sets the mode bit,  
however, the fault occurs on the rei even though it shouldn't.
