Subject: [PATCH] KVM: s390: do not clobber registers during guest reset/store
status

The initial CPU reset clobbers the userspace fpc and the store status
ioctl clobbers the guest acrs + fpr.  As these calls are only done via
ioctl (and not via vcpu_run), no CPU context is loaded, so we can (and
must) act directly on the sync regs, not on the thread context.

This was a context conflict because we don't have b9224cd7381a ("KVM:
s390: introduce defines for control registers") on 4.14. I've fixed it
and queued it up on 4.14.
