KVM: s390: bugfix for kvm/master (4.2) 

Here is a bugfix for a regression that was introduced after 4.1
 with the commit commit 785dbef407 ("KVM: s390: optimize round
 trip time in request handling"). After lots of cpu hotplugs in the
 guest (online/offline) sometimes a guest CPU did loop within host
 KVM code. Reason was that PROG_REQUEST was set in the sie control
 block, but no request was pending. This made commit 785dbef407
 the suspect and changing that area to always reset PROG_REQUEST
 did indeed fix the problem.
 
 Special thanks to David Hildenbrand, who helped understanding the
 exact sequence that led to the problem.
