The previous code gets the domain ID from the copied context entry:

u16 did_old = context_domain_id(context);

This makes no sense for scalable mode, as the domain ID has been moved
to the PASID entry in scalable mode. As the result, did_old always gets
0.

This change doesn't impact anything as the hardware will skip domain id
field in the Context-cache Invalidate Descriptor in scalable mode.

Spec section 6.5.2.1 Context-cache Invalidate Descriptor:

Domain-ID (DID): ... This field is ignored by hardware when operating in
scalable mode (RTADDR_REG.TTM=01b).
