From: Richard Henderson <richard.hender...@linaro.org> Since QEMU does not implement ASIDs, changes to the ASID must flush the tlb. However, if the ASID does not change there is no reason to flush.
In testing a boot of the Ubuntu installer to the first menu, this reduces the number of flushes by 30%, or nearly 600k instances.
