ARM: 7925/1: mm: keep track of last ASID allocation to improve bitmap searching
Since we only clear entries in the ASID bitmap on a rollover event, the bitmap tends to consist of a block of consecutive set bits followed by a block of consecutive clear bits. The exception to this rule is for ASIDs which have been carried over from a previous generation, but these are bound by the number of CPUs. This patch optimises our bitmap searching strategy, so that we search from the last successful allocation, rather than search from index 1 each time we allocate a new ASID.
