A second step when testing the channel subsystem is to prepare a channel
for use.
This includes:
- Get the current SubCHannel Information Block (SCHIB) using STSCH
- Update it in memory to set the ENABLE bit
- Tell the CSS that the SCHIB has been modified using MSCH
- Get the SCHIB from the CSS again to verify that the subchannel is
enabled.
This tests the success of the MSCH instruction by enabling a channel.

Would this function be useful for other callers as well? I.e., should
it go into a common header?
Yes, I wanted to put it in the new time.h with the get_clock_ms() but
did not since I already got the RB.
I also did not want to add a patch to the series, but since you ask, I
can put it in a separate patch to keep the RB and to add it in the time.h

That's just a short delay to avoid a busy loop, right? msch should be
immediate,
Thought you told to me that it may not be immediate in zVM did I
misunderstand?
and you probably should not delay on success?
yes, it is not optimized, I can test PMCW_ENABLE in the loop this way we
can see if, in the zVM case we need to do retries or not.
+ } while (!(pmcw->flags & PMCW_ENABLE) && count++ < 5);
How is this supposed to work? Doesn't the stsch overwrite the control
block again, so you need to re-set the enable bit before you retry?
I do not think so, there is no msch() in the loop.
Do I miss something?
Thanks for the review,
Regards,
Pierre
