TLB skip size direct how many TLBs is skipped.
Currently TLB0 and TLB1 are used for Linux kernel mapping
that's why their are skipped.

Current implementation doesn't handle dcache_line_length
correctly that's why is better to use generic memcpy.
Cache optimized function could be good way howto improve
performance but must be based on benchmarking not blind
function like this.

TLB size was hardcoded in asm code. This patch brings ability
to change TLB size only in one place. (mmu.h).

Problem arise when is incopatibility between kernel/dts/pvr
and kernel tries to announce it. Early printk device
(uartlite in our case) was in TLB 2 and when kernel
extract DTB it necessary to allocate at least one
TLB at the end of memory. First free TLB was number two
where was early printk. But checking mechanism (kernel/dts/pvr)
was after extrahing but TLB 2 was different. This caused
that kernel hung up.
Moving early printk device to TLB 63 solve it and we don't
protect it which means that we can use early_printk messages
only for initial parts of kernel then we rewrite TLB 63.
