Not sure here. You seem to still set those from asm. Is that necessary ?

The approach I take on BookE is to simply not set these from asm, -and-
(this is important) not set write permission if dirty is not set in
the TLB miss and set no access permission at all when accessed is not
set. This is important or we'll miss dirty updates which can
be fatal.

The C code in handle_pte_fault() will fixup missing access and dirty
if necessary and flush.

Also look at the 440 code, I think you could simplify your
implementation using similar techniques, such as andc of PTE against
requested bits etc... and thus maybe save a couple of insns.

Cheers,
Ben.
