There is a tricky little gotcha here that probably requires a comment.

NH_VA and NH_ASID both take (VMID,ASID) as input since the ASID is
always scoped to a single VMID.

In this case the invalidation logic always wires the VMID to zero,
which is also the VMID the driver uses for S1 tables when the S2 is in
bypass.

Which is fine, we don't support an actual S1 table on top of a S2
table where we issue invalidations through the invs array.

So maybe:

 For S1 page tables the driver always uses VMID=0, and the
 invalidation logic for this type will set it as well.
