s390/zcrypt: make sysfs reset attribute trigger queue reset
Until now there is no way to reset a AP queue or card. Driving a card or queue offline and online again does only toggle the 'software' online state. The only way to trigger a (hardware) reset is by running hot-unplug/hot-plug for example on the HMC. This patch makes the queue reset attribute in sysfs writable. Writing into this attribute triggers a reset on the AP queue's state machine. So the AP queue is flushed and state machine runs through the initial states which cause a reset (PQAP(RAPQ)) and a re-registration to interrupts (PQAP(AQIC)) if available. The reset sysfs attribute is writable by root only. So only an administrator is allowed to initiate a reset of AP queues. Please note that the queue's counter values are left untouched by the reset.
