Cleanup for ASID emulation:
- Use C99 integer types for asid numbers

- asid.c: consistently use 'v' instead of 'curr'

On what planet is that an improvement??

We use 'curr' as a convenient idiom to represent cached current. Whereas
'v' is supposed to represent an arbitrary vcpu.

Oh, that's the difference. I thought 'curr' is just another random name for an
arbitrary vcpu.

I will resend the patch w/o that hunk.

I already applied the two cleanups that I didn't mind, as two separate
changesets.

Thanks.

And I've nacked your main patch so you can go take a look at
that. :-)

Just sent my comments.

Christoph
