I found the problem.
Old manual explain the tlbivax EA format that bit 60 is used for tlbsel.
Howerver the newest verstion tells that bit 59~60 of tlbivax EA are used
for tlbsel.
Correspondingly, the MAS0 use 34~35 bits for tlbsel now.

I think I should check the case that tlbsel is not valid in the code.
