Return amount of ASIDs
PATCH 1/1 Return amount of ASIDs
Return amount of ASIDs
With SVM the TLB supports tagging to distinguish TLB entries from different virtual CPUs. This tag is called an ASID. The amount of ASIDs is given in EBX of the SVM-CPUID-leaf. Currently we return 0, which might break hypervisors. Let's better return something >0 here, say 0x10. Since we're flushing the complete TLB on every VM entry and exit we're not making use of the ASID information anyways.
