Sebastian Ott	b4563e891a	[S390] cio: wait for channel report ... To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390 machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle one crw if needed. This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending requests). By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

Heiko Carstens	98c1c68252	[S390] cio/crw: add/fix locking ... The crw_unregister_handler uses xchg + synchronize_sched when unregistering a crw_handler. This doesn't protect crw_collect_info to potentially jump to NULL since it has unlocked code like this: if (crw_handlers[i]) crw_handlers[i](NULL, NULL, 1); So add a mutex which protects the crw handler array for changes.

Heiko Carstens	f5daba1d41	[S390] split/move machine check handler code ... Split machine check handler code and move it to cio and kernel code where it belongs to. No functional change.
