This patch only contains asid help code from arm for next patch to
use.
The asid allocator use five level check to reduce the cost of
switch_mm.
1. Check if the asid version is the same (it's general)
2. Check reserved_asid which is set in rollover flush_context()
and key point is to keep the same bit position with the current
asid version instead of input version.
3. Check if the position of bitmap is free then it could be set &
used directly.
4. find_next_zero_bit() (a little performance cost)
5. flush_context (this is the worst cost with increase current asid
version)
Check is level by level and cost is also higher with the next level.
The reserved_asid and bitmap mechanism prevent unnecessary
find_next_zero_bit().
The atomic 64 bit asid is also suitable for 32-bit system and it
won't cost a lot in 1th 2th 3th level check.
The operation of set/clear mm_cpumask was removed in arm64 compared to
arm32. It seems no side effect on current arm64 system, but from
software meaning it's wrong. Although csky also needn't it, we add it
back for csky.
The asid_per_ctxt is no use for csky and it reserves the lowest bits for
other use, maybe: trust zone ? Ok, just keep it in csky copy.
Seems it also could be used by other archs and it's worth to move asid
code to generic in future.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
