A new mm doesn't have a PASID yet when it's created. Initialize the mm's PASID on fork() or for init_mm to INVALID_IOASID (-1). INIT_PASID (0) is reserved for kernel legacy DMA PASID. It cannot be allocated to a user process. Initializing the process's PASID to 0 may cause confusion that's why the process uses the reserved kernel legacy DMA PASID. Initializing the PASID to INVALID_IOASID (-1) explicitly tells the process doesn't have a valid PASID yet. Even though the only user of mm_pasid_init() is in fork.c, define it in <linux/sched/mm.h> as the first of three mm/pasid life cycle functions (init/set/drop) to keep these all together.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
