Subject: [PATCH 20/30] x86, mm: remove hard-coded ASID limit checks


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

First, it's nice to remove the magic numbers.

Second, KAISER is going to consume half of the available ASID
space.  The space is currently unused, but add a comment to spell
out this new restriction.
