This patch adds a driver for subchannels of type chsc.
A device /dev/chsc is created which may be used to issue ioctls to:
- obtain information about the machine's I/O configuration
- dynamically change the machine's I/O configuration via
asynchronous chsc commands

This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries
(aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization
instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each.
This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest
kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible.
The following source files are introduced by this patch
arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all
arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into
sie64a to enter the guest machine context
arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest
context via SIE, and switches world before and after that
include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run
virtual machines on the mainframe
include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to
guest register content
arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory
arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by
later patches

This patch delivers a new Linux API in the form of a misc char
device that is useable from user space and allows write access
to the z/VM APPLDATA Monitor Records collected by the *MONITOR
System Service of z/VM.
