+. cast CAC_BASE into u64 to silence warning on MIPS32

CP0 Context has enough room for wraping pgd into its 41-bit PTEBase field.

+. For XPHYS, the trick is that pgd is 4kB aligned, and the PABITS <= 53,
only save 53 - 12 = 41 bits, aka :

   bit[63:59] | 0000 00 |  bit[53:12] | 0000 0000 0000

+. for CKSEG0, only save 29 - 12 = 17 bits

when switching pgd, only need to save bit[53:12] or bit[28:12] into
CP0 Context's bit[63:23], see folling asm generated at run time

tlbmiss_handler_setup_pgd:
	.set	push
	.set	noreorder

	dsra	a2, a0, 29
	move	a3, a0
	dins	a0, zero, 29, 35
	daddiu	a2, a2, 4	//for CKSEG0, a2 from 0xfffffffffffffffc
				//into 0

	movn	a0, a3, a2
	dsll	a0, a0, 11
	jr	ra
	dmtc0	a0, CP0_CONTEXT

	.set	pop

when using it on page walking

	dmfc0	k0, CP0_CONTEXT
	dins	k0, zero, 0, 23	         // zero badv2
	ori	k0, k0, (CAC_BASE >> 53) // *prefix* with bit[63:59]
	drotr	k0, k0, 11		 // kick it in the right place
