page granularity flushing is broken.

This makes sense, since TCG will record the entire virtual
address in its TLB, not simply the 56 significant bits.
With no other TCG support, the ARM backend should require
256 different page flushes to clear the virtual address of
any possible tag.

So I added a new tcg interface that allows passing the size
of the virtual address.  I thought a simple bit-count was a
cleaner interface than passing in a mask, since it means that
we couldn't be passed nonsensical masks like 0xdeadbeef.  It
also makes it easy to re-direct special cases.
