Hrm... I've missed where you call it. Can't you directly allocate
a context ID instead of a whole mm ?

Ok. In general, I'd rather keep the KVM SLB switching separate from
the "normal" one since there's different constraints anyways.

Please, and add my Acks. Pls dbl check the need for mm_alloc() though.

Cheers,
Ben.
