commit 020bf042e5b397479c1174081b935d0ff15d1a64 upstream.
The channel checks the specified length and the provided amount of
data for CCWs and provides an incorrect length error if the size does
not match. Under z/VM with simulation activated the length may get
changed. Having the suppress length indication bit set is stated as
good CCW coding practice and avoids errors under z/VM.
