The principles of operations states that the CPU is allowed to create TLB entries for an address space anytime while an ASCE is loaded to the control register. This is true even if the CPU is running in the kernel and the user address space is not (actively) accessed. In theory this can affect two aspects of the TLB flush logic. For full-mm flushes the ASCE of the dying process is still attached. The approach to flush first with IDTE and then just free all page tables can in theory lead to stale TLB entries. Use the batched free of page tables for the full-mm flushes as well. For operations that can have a stale ASCE in the control register, e.g. a delayed update_user_asce in switch_mm, load the kernel ASCE to prevent invalid TLBs from being created.
