At the moment, the function kvm_get_vmid_bits() is looking up for the sanitized value of ID_AA64MMFR1_EL1 and extract the information regarding the number of VMID bits supported. This is fine as the function is mainly used during VMID roll-over. New use in a follow-up patch will require the function to be called a every context switch so we want the function to be more efficient. A new capability is introduced to tell whether 16-bit VMID is available.
