Diag204's cpu structures only contain the cpu type by means of an
index in the diag224 name table. Hence, to be able to use diag204 in
any meaningful way, we also need a usable diag224 interface.

Diag 204 data and function definitions currently live in the hypfs
files. As KVM will be a consumer of this data, we need to make it
publicly available and move it to the appropriate diag.{c,h} files.
__attribute__ ((packed)) occurences were replaced with __packed for
all moved structs.

To be able to analyse problems in regard to hypervisor overhead
add a tracepoing for diagnose calls. It reports the number of
the diagnose issued, e.g.
sshd-1385 [002] .... 42.701431: diagnose: nr=0x9c
<idle>-0 [001] ..s. 43.587528: diagnose: nr=0x9c

Introduce /sys/debug/kernel/diag_stat with a statistic how many diagnose
calls have been done by each CPU in the system.

Currently the diag10() function can only release one page. For exploiters
that have to call diag10 on a contiguous memory region this is suboptimal.
This patch replaces the diag10() function with diag10_range() that is
able to release multiple pages. In addition to that the new function now
allows to release memory with addresses higher than 2047 MiB. This was
due to a restriction of the diagnose implementation under z/VM prior to
release 5.2.
