There is at least one guest (OS) such that although it does not rely on the guarantees provided by ORB 1 word 9 bit (aka unlimited prefetch, aka P bit) not being set, it fails to tell this to the machine. Usually this ain't a big deal, as the original purpose of the P bit is to allow for performance optimizations. vfio-ccw however can not provide the guarantees required if the bit is not set. It is not possible to implement support for the P bit not set without transitioning to lower level protocols for vfio-ccw. So let's give the user the opportunity to force setting the P bit, if the user knows this is safe. For self modifying channel programs forcing the P bit is not safe. If the P bit is forced for a self modifying channel program things are expected to break in strange ways. Let's also avoid warning multiple about P bit not set in the ORB in case P bit is not told to be forced, and designate the affected vfio-ccw device.
