When we call ssch, an interrupt might already be pending once we
return from the START SUBCHANNEL instruction. Therefore we need to
make sure interrupts are disabled until after we're done with our
processing.

Note that the subchannel lock is the same as the ccwdevice lock that
is mentioned in the documentation for ccw_device_start() and friends.

I have been working on a patch to solve this problem between others, I provide it soon.
It is much more intrusive, reworking interrupts and state machine.
So may be you do not like it.


If we stay on this patch, even this is quite a long spinlock around ssch and stsch,
and we need it in the current implementation.
