This commit message needs reworking. I would suggest something like:

  The T0SZ field of TCR_EL1 occupies bits 0-5 of the register and
  encodes the virtual address space translated by TTBR0_EL1. When
  updating the field (for example, because we are switching to/from
  the idmap page-table), __cpu_set_tcr_t0sz() erroneously treats its
  't0sz' argument as unshifted, resulting in harmless but confusing
  double shifts by 0 in the code.

  Remove the unnecessary shifts.

Honestly, although it's great that you all meet up to look at the kernel,
this long list of credits is a little absurd for a trivial patch like
this. Please can you decide who did the most work and give them the
credit? Hopefully there will be future opportunities for you all to
contribute!

Sorry, but this is wrong. Please have a look at how cpu_install_ttbr0()
is called; specifically how trans_pgd_idmap_page() sets up 't0sz'.

So I don't think you should change cpu_install_ttbr0() at all and adding
a cpu_set_tcr_t0sz() macro which calls TCR_T0SZ on the 't0sz' argument
is a mistake.
