OK, this is much more of a pain than I thought.

I tried bringing the various helpers into the PI section, but it ended
up being extremely ugly.

More importantly, this is something that is pretty much at odds with
the whole idea of the MIDR override -- it happens way earlier than we
can populate the table.

The thing is, the only reason we need to do this is that we need to
support the Cavium SEFAC (Sorry Excuse For A Computer) that cannot run
with KPTI.

I can restore harmony with the following hack. But maybe we should
just prune TX from the kernel and be done with this contraption.
