Subject: [S390] reboot from and dump to SCSI under z/VM fails.

From: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@...ibm.com>

[S390] reboot from and dump to SCSI under z/VM fails.

We used wrong length values for ipl and dump hardware structures.
Since z/VM checks the ipl parameters more accurately than LPAR,
the operations fail there.
