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 and the specified ISC
- 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 and uses the specified ISC.
- If the command succeeds but subchannel is not enabled or the ISC
    field is not as expected, retry a predefined retries count.
- If the command fails, report the failure and do not retry, even
    if cc indicates a busy/status pending as we do not expect this.

This tests the MSCH instruction to enable a channel successfully.
Retries are done and in case of error, and if the retries count
is exceeded, a report is made.

I think you want (pmcw->flags & PMCW_ENABLE) == PMCW_ENABLE -- this
catches the case of "subchannel has been enabled before, but with a
different isc".

If with a different ISC, we need to modify the ISC.
Don't we ?

I think that's a policy decision (I would probably fail and require a
disable before setting another isc, but that's a matter of taste).

Regardless, I think the current check doesn't even catch the 'different
isc' case?

hum, right.
If it is OK I remove this one.
And I must rework the same test I do later
 in this patch.

Thanks,
Pierre
