Cleanup for ASID emulation:

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 know it costs three extra characters per use, but it does make code
easier to understand.
