[PATCH v4 09/16] arm64/mm: Split the function check_and_switch_context in 3 parts

[Shameer Kolothum <shameerali.kolothum.thodi@huawei.com>]

From: Julien Grall <julien.grall@arm.com>

The function check_and_switch_context is used to:
    1) Check whether the ASID is still valid
    2) Generate a new one if it is not valid
    3) Switch the context

While the latter is specific to the MM subsystem, the rest could be part
of the generic ASID allocator.

After this patch, the function is now split in 3 parts which corresponds
to the use of the functions:
    1) asid_check_context: Check if the ASID is still valid
    2) asid_new_context: Generate a new ASID for the context
    3) check_and_switch_context: Call 1) and 2) and switch the context

1) and 2) have not been merged in a single function because we want to
avoid to add a branch in when the ASID is still valid. This will matter
when the code will be moved in separate file later on as 1) will reside
in the header as a static inline function.

    Will wants to avoid to add a branch when the ASID is still valid. So
    1) and 2) are in separates function. The former will move to a new
    header and make static inline.
