Whenever a reboot initiated by the guest is done, the reipl parameters should
remain valid. The disk configured by the guest is to be used for
ipl'ing. External reboot/reset request (e.g. via virsh reset guest) should
completely reset the guest to the initial state, and therefore also reset the
reipl parameters, resulting in an ipl behaviour of the initially configured
guest. This could be an external kernel or a disk.

To support dynamically updating the IPL device from inside the KVM
guest on the s390 platform, DIAG 308 instruction is intercepted
in QEMU to handle the request.
Subcode 5 allows to specify a new boot device, which is saved for
later in the s390_ipl device. This also allows to switch from an
external kernel to a boot device.
Subcode 6 retrieves boot device configuration that has been previously
set.
