There are bunch of MIPS documents and implementations on earth.  It's
short to read only MTI definitions which are in fact selected collations
of design diversities.  Please refer to NEC's Vr10000 doco available 
online.  (much look like the original R10000 print)

R1x000 has FrameMask register which is assumed to manipulate EntryLo
in 36bit PFN compatible fashion.  It'd be useful when 40bit physical
address is not required by target hardware design.
