This array is within CPUNegativeOffsetState, which means the
last element of the array has an offset from env with the
smallest magnitude. This can be encoded into fewer bits
when generating TCG fast path memory references.
When we changed the NB_MMU_MODES to be a global constant,
rather than a per-target value, we pessimized the code
generated for targets which use only a few mmu indexes.
By inverting the array index, we counteract that.
