This function is broadly named but contains various assumptions about the
entry being created. I'd just call it create_kaslr_tlb_entry.

Should set MAS7 under MMU_FTR_BIG_PHYS (or CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT if it's
too early for features) -- even if relocatable kernels over 4GiB aren't
supported (I don't remember if they work or not), MAS7 might be non-zero
on entry. And the function claims to take a 64-bit phys addr as input...

MAS2_M should be MAS2_M_IF_NEEDED to match other kmem tlb entries.
