Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 1/7] mm/x86: Introduce kernel Address Space Isolation (ASI)

Introduce core functions and structures for implementing Address Space
Isolation (ASI). Kernel address space isolation provides the ability to
run some kernel code with a reduced kernel address space.

An address space isolation is defined with a struct asi structure and
associated with an ASI type and a pagetable.

+ *   ASI PCID = (ASI Type PCID Prefix << 4) | Kernel PCID

+ * The ASI PCID is used to optimize TLB flushing when switching between

+ * between different ASIs with the same type then the ASI TLB the task
