Again, please don't CC stable directly.

I completely forgot what we do now. What do we do? It shouldn't be too hard to keep a table around and just assign 8 host ASIDs to the guest. If possible lazily, so we can just flush the whole thing when we run out of entries.

It's basically the same as my VSID mapping on ppc64 actually. See arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_mmu_host.c and search for "slb".

What about nnpt? Hasn't that been accepted yet?
