I added that change during development, based on some issue I hit that
time (with a note to fix this correctly later). Now looking back I don't
recollect what the bug was about. AFAIU the following mm_init() should
properly initialize the context.id and we should not hit a tlbflush in between.
Hence for now I will remove this hunk.
