Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 10/25] KVM: nSVM: Add a placeholder ASID for L2
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2026 00:41:39 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616004155.1435766-11-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260616004155.1435766-1-yosry@kernel.org>

In preparation for introducing a separate ASID for L2, introduce a
'placeholder' ASID that is still the same as L1's ASID. This will
facilitate future changes that need to distinguish L1 and L2's ASIDs,
before actually using a different ASID for L1 and L2.

No functional change intended.
