The index field of the struct page corresponding to a guest ASCE should

new ASCE should also be set to 0.

Having the wrong index might lead to the wrong addresses being passed
around when notifying pte invalidations, and eventually to validity
intercepts (VM crash) if the prefix gets unmapped and the notifier gets
called with the wrong address.
