Add a region to the vfio-ccw device that can be used to submit

Interrupt status continues to be reported through the same channels
as for ssch.

I am a little confused about this. Why do we need to update the scsw.cpa
if we have the start function function control bit set? Is it an
optimization?
No, it's not an optimization. This is the work function that is
scheduled if we get an interrupt for the device. Previously, we only
got an interrupt if either the device presented us an unsolicited
status or if we got an interrupt as a response to the channel program
we submitted. Now, we can get an interrupt for halt/clear subchannel as
well, and in that case, we don't necessarily have a cp.
[Thinking some more about it, we need to verify if the start function
actually remains set if we try to terminate a running channel program
with halt/clear. A clear might scrub too much. If that's the case, we
also need to free the cp if the start function is not set.]
According to PoPs (Chapter 16: I/O interruptions, under function control):
The start-function indication is also cleared at
the subchannel during the execution of CLEAR SUB-
CHANNEL.
So maybe we do need to free the cp.
