ARM: mm: use bitmap operations when allocating new ASIDs
When allocating a new ASID, we must take care not to re-assign a
reserved ASID-value to a new mm. This requires us to check each
candidate ASID against those currently reserved by other cores before
assigning a new ASID to the current mm.
This patch improves the ASID allocation algorithm by using a
bitmap-based approach. Rather than iterating over the reserved ASID
array for each candidate ASID, we simply find the first zero bit,
ensuring that those indices corresponding to reserved ASIDs are set
when flushing during a rollover event.
