Maybe with future patches. My understanding is that on aarch64 the world
switch between S/NS requires EL3 firmware to reprogram the TTBR regs.
Currently in QEMU, the re-programming of TTBR will flush the TLBs. We would
need to do something about that before adding MMU tables for aarch64 Secure
EL0/1 does any good. I think it's better to keep it simple for now and leave
this as a possible future optimization.
Another possible future optimization is to add some kind of dynamic allocation
of a limited set of MMU tables for different ASIDs and VMIDs. For emulated
virtualization, it might help quite a bit.

Yes, I avoided this patch in my v1 because I thought we would need a non
linear mapping for aarch32 S/NS anyway. But I agree that a combination is
good. Keeping a 1:1 mapping between EL -> MMU idx and have additional MMU
tables for specific features like S/NS.
