arm64: Ensure bits ASID[15:8] are masked out when the kernel uses 8-bit ASIDs
Linux currently sets the TCR_EL1.AS bit unconditionally during CPU bring-up. On an 8-bit ASID CPU, this is RES0 and ignored, otherwise 16-bit ASIDs are enabled. However, if running in a VM and the hypervisor reports 8-bit ASIDs (ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ASIDBits == 0) on a 16-bit ASIDs CPU, Linux uses bits 8 to 63 as a generation number for tracking old process ASIDs. The bottom 8 bits of this generation end up being written to TTBR1_EL1 and also used for the ASID-based TLBI operations as the upper 8 bits of the ASID. Following an ASID roll-over event we can have threads of the same application with the same 8-bit ASID but different generation numbers running on separate CPUs. Both TLB caching and the TLBI operations will end up using different actual 16-bit ASIDs for the same process. A similar scenario can happen in a big.LITTLE configuration if the boot CPU only uses 8-bit ASIDs while secondary CPUs have 16-bit ASIDs. Ensure that the ASID generation is only tracked by bits 16 and up, leaving bits 15:8 as 0 if the kernel uses 8-bit ASIDs. Note that clearing TCR_EL1.AS is not sufficient since the architecture requires that the top 8 bits of the ASID passed to TLBI instructions are 0 rather than ignored in such configuration.
