    powerpc/vas: Define vas_win_id() · 61f3cca8
    Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
    Define an interface to return a system-wide unique id for a given VAS
    window.
    
    The vas_win_id() will be used in a follow-on patch to generate an unique
    handle for a user space receive window. Applications can use this handle
    to pair send and receive windows for fast thread-wakeup.
    
    The hardware refers to this system-wide unique id as a Partition Send
    Window ID which is expected to be used during fault handling. Hence the
    "pswid" in the function names.
