Although Linux does not use format-0 channel command words (CCW0)
these are a non-optional part of the platform spec, and for the sake
of platform compliance, and possibly some non-Linux guests, we have
to support CCW0.
Making the kernel execute a format 0 channel program is too much hassle
because we would need to allocate and use memory which can be addressed
by 24 bit physical addresses (because of CCW0.cda). So we implement CCW0
support by translating the channel program into an equivalent CCW1
program instead.
Based upon an orginal patch by Kai Yue Wang.

In tiqdio_call_inq_handlers(), we're looping over all

For devices with multiple input queues, tiqdio_call_inq_handlers()
iterates over all input queues and clears the device's DSCI
during each iteration. If the DSCI is re-armed during one
of the later iterations, we therefore do not scan the previous
queues again.
The re-arming also raises a new adapter interrupt. But its
handler does not trigger a rescan for the device, as the DSCI
has already been erroneously cleared.
This can result in queue stalls on devices with multiple
input queues.
Fix it by clearing the DSCI just once, prior to scanning the queues.
As the code is moved in front of the loop, we also need to access
the DSCI directly (ie irq->dsci) instead of going via each queue's
parent pointer to the same irq. This is not a functional change,
and a follow-up patch will clean up the other users.
In practice, this bug only affects CQ-enabled HiperSockets devices,
ie. devices with sysfs-attribute "hsuid" set. Setting a hsuid is
needed for AF_IUCV socket applications that use HiperSockets
communication.

The workqueue "chp_wq" is involved in performing pending
configure tasks for channel paths.
It has a single work item(&cfg_work) and hence doesn't require
ordering. Also, it is not being used on a memory reclaim path.
Hence, the singlethreaded workqueue has been replaced with the use of
system_wq.
System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.
