Huh?

CMD_ATC_INV has the SID

Other commands have the ASID.

You never need to cross an ASID to a SID or vice versa.

If the guest is aware of ATS it will issue CMD_ATC_INV with vSIDs, and
the hypervisor just needs to convert vSID to pSID.

Otherwise vSID doesn't matter because it isn't used in the invalidation
API and you are just handling ASIDs that only need the VM_ID scope
applied.
