The QEMU ELF loader does not zero the bss segment.
This resulted in several bugs, e.g. see
commit 5d739a4787 (s390-ccw.img: Fix sporadic errors with ccw boot image - initialize css)
commit 6a40fa2669d3 (s390-ccw.img: Initialize next_idx)
commit 8775d91a0f (pc-bios/s390-ccw: Fix problem with invalid virtio-scsi LUN when rebooting)
Let's fix this once and forever by letting the BIOS zero the bss itself.

To IPL from a device, pc-bios receives from qemu a device address via
general register 7. The better way to do it is to use diag308/6
instruction which returns so called
"IplParameterBlock". IplParameterBlock contains the device address for
IPL and additional parameters that can be used by pc-bios.
This patch allows pc-bios to get device address via diag308/6 and
doesn't use gr7 passed boot information anymore.

We have to consume the outstanding service interrupt after each
service call, otherwise a correct implementation will return
CC=2 on subsequent service calls.

Use the passed device, if there is no device, use the first applicable device.

dont waste cpu power on an error condition. Lets stop the guest

We want to write most of our code in C, so add a small assembly
stub that jumps straight into C code for us to continue booting.
