Well, David suggested adding "#define DEBUG 1" at the very top of
tlbex.c, then booting with "debug" and posting the TLB refill handler
to make sure the RI/XI code isn't getting enabled.  That seems like a
reasonable start.  Even if there's no smoking gun, we'd still be able
to compare our TLB handlers side-by-side.

Personally I don't have any other leads or patches to try.  These
changes work fine for me in every configuration I am able to test:

32-bit MIPS32 system, 32-bit kernel (non-RIXI)
32-bit MIPS32 system, 32-bit kernel (XI)
64-bit R5000 system, 32-bit kernel (non-RIXI, with 64-bit physical addresses)
64-bit R5000 system, 64-bit kernel (non-RIXI)

So it's really best for somebody to debug the problem hands-on, on the
system that showed the issue.

Would you be able to post your rootfs image?  Are you using
"usr/dev_file_list usr/rootfs" from CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE?  That
could eliminate one other potential difference between our
configurations.
