Eric Farman 5d87fbf70f s390/cio: Don't pin vfio pages for empty transfers
The skip flag of a CCW offers the possibility of data not being
transferred, but is only meaningful for certain commands.
Specifically, it is only applicable for a read, read backward, sense,
or sense ID CCW and will be ignored for any other command code
(SA22-7832-11 page 15-64, and figure 15-30 on page 15-75).

(A sense ID is xE4, while a sense is x04 with possible modifiers in the
upper four bits.  So we will cover the whole "family" of sense CCWs.)

For those scenarios, since there is no requirement for the target
address to be valid, we should skip the call to vfio_pin_pages() and
rely on the IDAL address we have allocated/built for the channel
program.  The fact that the individual IDAWs within the IDAL are
invalid is fine, since they aren't actually checked in these cases.

Set pa_nr to zero when skipping the pfn_array_pin() call, since it is
defined as the number of pages pinned and is used to determine
whether to call vfio_unpin_pages() upon cleanup.

The pfn_array_pin() routine returns the number of pages that were
pinned, but now might be skipped for some CCWs.  Thus we need to
calculate the expected number of pages ourselves such that we are
guaranteed to allocate a reasonable number of IDAWs, which will
provide a valid address in CCW.CDA regardless of whether the IDAWs
are filled in with pinned/translated addresses or not.
