Change the initiative to update subchannel-ccw device associations
to the subchannel: when there is an indication that the internal
association no longer reflects the current hardware state, mark
each affected subchannel as requiring attention. Once processing
reaches a subchannel, determine the correct association for that
subchannel at that time and perform the necessary device_move
operations.

This change fixes problems with the previous approach which would
leave devices in an inconsistent state when a new hardware change
occurred while a device_move was already scheduled.

When the kernel is IPLed without the CLEAR option and switches
to 64-bit, the high-order half of the registers might contain
random values.  This can cause addressing exceptions and the
kernel enters an interrupt loop.

Initialize the high-order half of the general purpose registers
with zeros after switching to 64-bit mode.

Starting with version 4.5, GCC has a new built-in function
__builtin_unreachable() that can be used in places like the kernel's
BUG() where inline assembly is used to transfer control flow.  This
eliminated the need for an endless loop in these places.

The patch adds a new macro 'unreachable()' that will expand to either
__builtin_unreachable() or an endless loop depending on the compiler
version.

Change from v1: Simplify unreachable() for non-GCC 4.5 case.
