Subject: KVM: s390: Remove false WARN_ON_ONCE for the PQAP instruction

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5615e74f48dcc982655543e979b6c3f3f877e6f6 upstream.

In LPAR we will only get an intercept for FC==3 for the PQAP
instruction. Running nested under z/VM can result in other intercepts as
well as ECA_APIE is an effective bit: If one hypervisor layer has
turned this bit off, the end result will be that we will get intercepts for
all function codes. Usually the first one will be a query like PQAP(QCI).
So the WARN_ON_ONCE is not right. Let us simply remove it.
