The commit 0c8ea531b774 ("arm64: mm: Allocate ASIDs in pairs") introduce the
asid2idx and idx2asid macro, but these macros is not really useful after the
commit f88f42f853a8 ("arm64: context: Free up kernel ASIDs if KPTI is not in use").

I think "(asid & ~ASID_MASK)" can be instead by a macro, it is the same code with
asid2idx(). Can it be renamed?  (eg, ctxid2asid)

Thanks.
