Seems good, using the same flag to mask out bit 31 of these macros.
They are used only in a few places, and I think removing the macro bit
would be ok, but I think your way is better to keep it documented.
I just noticed that there is a similar function that uses PPC_INST_TSR:
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early @ arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_tm_builtin.c.
Wouldn't it need to be changed as well?

I suppose this is the right thing to do, but I think it would be better
to give this change it's own patch.
What do you think?
