As suggested by Andy off-list, I tested with this change to always force 
ASID 0

diff --git a/arch/x86/mm/tlb.c b/arch/x86/mm/tlb.c
index 5ca71d1..c3b0811 100644
--- a/arch/x86/mm/tlb.c

 {
 	u16 asid;
 
-	if (!static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PCID)) {
+	if (true || !static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PCID)) {
 		*new_asid = 0;
 		*need_flush = true;
 		return;

and that fixes the issue on my system.
