A SIGP SENSE is used to determine if a CPU is stopped or operating,

and is probably ill-equipped to respond to it.
sigp sense running status doesn't return a cc2, only sigp sense does afaik.
Looking at the KVM implementation tells me that it's not doing more than
looking at the R bit in the sblk.
In practice, the order is likely to only encounter this when racing
with a SIGP STOP (AND STORE STATUS) or SIGP RESTART order, which are
unlikely. But, since it's not impossible, let's convert the library
calls that issue a SIGP to loop on CC2 so the callers do not need
to react to that possible outcome.
