[PATCH v2 2/3] s390/vfio-ap: set status response code to 06 on gisc registration failure

From: Anthony Krowiak <akrowiak@linux.ibm.com>

The interception handler for the PQAP(AQIC) command calls the
kvm_s390_gisc_register function to register the guest ISC with the channel
subsystem. If that call fails, the status response code 08 - indicating
Invalid ZONE/GISA designation - is returned to the guest. This response
code does not make sense because the non-zero return code from the
kvm_s390_gisc_register function can be due one of two things: Either the
ISC passed as a parameter by the guest to the PQAP(AQIC) command is greater
than the maximum ISC value allowed, or the guest is not using a GISA.

Since this scenario is very unlikely to happen and there is no status
response code to indicate an invalid ISC value, let's set the
response code to 06 indicating 'Invalid address of AP-queue notification
byte'. While this is not entirely accurate, it is better than indicating
that the ZONE/GISA designation is invalid which is something the guest
can do nothing about since those values are set by the hypervisor.
