My repo is showing:

  Since the new ASID code in b5466f8728527a05a493cc4abe9e6f034a1bbaab
  ("ARM: mm: remove IPI broadcasting on ASID rollover") was changed to
  use 64bit operations it has broken the BE operation due to an issue
  with the MM code accessing sub-fields of mm->context.id.

Would you like the commit-id shortened?
Is there anything else before this pair can be pulled?
