2010-02-26[S390] Cleanup struct _lowcore usage and defines.Heiko Carstens
Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and its layout don't get out of sync. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure is sane. And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

2009-12-18[S390] cio: fix channel path varyPeter Oberparleiter
Channel path vary is currently broken: channel paths which are varied offline are still used by Linux. The reason for this is that: * the path mask indicating which paths of an I/O device can be used is reset by each internal I/O request * the logic that checks if a path group is already in its designated target state incorrectly interprets the result "is correctly set" as "is correctly set and available" Fix this by resetting the path mask only for internal I/O requests which affect the path mask and by correcting the pgid check logic.

2009-12-07[S390] cio: improve error recovery for internal I/OsPeter Oberparleiter
Improve error recovery for internal I/Os by repeating each I/O 256 times per path to cope with long-running non-permanent error conditions. Also retry each path twice to cope with link flapping, i.e. single paths becoming unavailable in the order in which they are tried.
