Just making sure I understand this:  The reason you cannot rely on the
guest doing the necessary distinction with ASIDs or invalidating the TLB
is that a guest (which assumes it's running on hardware) can validly
defer any neccessary invalidation until it starts running on other
physical CPUs, but we do this transparently in KVM?
