OK. But please add a small comment (it can be a separate patch, up to
you).

My point was that an inclusive mask should be enough as long as
NUM_USER_ASIDS changes.

I don't fully get how it would break if the generation always starts
from bit 16 and the asids are capped to NUM_USER_ASIDS. But I probably
miss something.

That's a good point. So leave it as it is, or maybe just avoid negating
it twice and use (GENMASK(...)) directly.
