s390/cpumf: Improve guest detection heuristics
commit e22cf8ca ("s390/cpumf: rework program parameter setting to detect guest samples") requires guest changes to get proper guest/host. We can do better: We can use the primary asn value, which is set on all Linux variants to compare this with the host pp value. We now have the following cases: 1. Guest using PP host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host guest sample: gpp != 0 --> guest 2. Guest not using PP host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host guest sample: gpp == 0, asn != hpp --> guest As soon as the host no longer sets CR4, we must back out this heuristics - let's add a comment in switch_to.
