/**
* @file
* @brief ASID management.
*
* Modern processor architectures optimize TLB utilization
* by using ASIDs (a.k.a. memory contexts on sparc64 and
* region identifiers on ia64). These ASIDs help to associate
* each TLB item with an address space, thus making
* finer-grained TLB invalidation possible.
*
* Unfortunatelly, there are usually less ASIDs available than
* there can be unique as_t structures (i.e. address spaces
* recognized by the kernel).
*
* When system runs short of ASIDs, it will attempt to steal
* ASID from an address space that has not been active for
* a while.
*
* This code depends on the fact that ASIDS_ALLOCABLE
* is greater than number of supported CPUs (i.e. the
* amount of concurently active address spaces).
*
* Architectures that don't have hardware support for address
* spaces do not compile with this file.
