Sebastian Ott 703e5c9993 [S390] cio: introduce consistent subchannel scanning
Previously, there were multiple subchannel scanning mechanisms
which could potentially conflict with each other. Fix this problem
by moving blacklist and ccw driver triggered scanning to the
existing evaluation method.

Sebastian Ott 255305536c [S390] cio: introduce css_eval_scheduled
Use css_eval_scheduled to determine if all scheduled subchannel
evaluation is finished. Wait for this value to be 0 in the
channel subsystem init function.

Cornelia Huck 9d92a7e1b0 [S390] cio: Add chsc subchannel driver.
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

Peter Oberparleiter 83b3370c79 [S390] cio: replace subchannel evaluation queue with bitmap
Use a bitmap for indicating which subchannels require evaluation
instead of allocating memory for each evaluation request. This
approach reduces memory consumption during recovery in case of
massive evaluation request occurrence and removes the need for
memory allocation failure handling.
