Peter Oberparleiter 8b3c9b69fa s390/cio: Fix CHPID "configure" attribute caching
[ Upstream commit 32ae4a2992529e2c7934e422035fad1d9b0f1fb5 ]

In some environments, the SCLP firmware interface used to query a
CHPID's configured state is not supported. On these environments,
rapidly reading the corresponding sysfs attribute produces inconsistent
results:

  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported
  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  3

This occurs for example when Linux is run as a KVM guest. The
inconsistency is a result of CIO using cached results for generating
the value of the "configure" attribute while failing to handle the
situation where no data was returned by SCLP.

Fix this by not updating the cache-expiration timestamp when SCLP
returns no data. With the fix applied, the system response is
consistent:

  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported
  $ cat /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure
  cat: /sys/devices/css0/chp0.00/configure: Operation not supported

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
