When switching to an 'mm_struct' for the first time following an ASID rollover, a new ASID may be allocated and assigned to 'mm->context.id'. This reassignment can happen concurrently with other operations on the mm, such as unmapping pages and subsequently issuing TLB invalidation. Consequently, we need to ensure that (a) accesses to 'mm->context.id' are atomic and (b) all page-table updates made prior to a TLBI using the old ASID are guaranteed to be visible to CPUs running with the new ASID. This was found by inspection after reviewing the VMID changes from Shameer but it looks like a real (yet hard to hit) bug.

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.
