Actually, each context only gives us 64TB, so the range here would be
0xc000000000000000 - 0xc0003fffffffffff.  Similarly for the others.

We could increase all these context numbers by 1.  We have to avoid
the last ESID of the last context because of the modulo operation in
the vsid scramble, but the vmemmap (which is what uses region 0xf)
will never be close to 64TB in size (it's 56 bytes per page of system
memory).

You should check the ea here, and if it is out of range (below 0xc...,
or with any of the 0x0fffc00000000000 bits set), return 0, which is
the reserved vsid.

At this point we know the top 4 bits of EA are 0xc, so the context is
a constant which we can load with 2 instructions.  We do also need to
check the middle bits (0x0fff_c000_0000_0000) and use a VSID of 0 if
any of them are set.

Also need to check the middle bits here and for the 1T case.
