Subject: [PATCH 4.9 32/32] s390/facilites: use stfle_fac_list array size for MAX_FACILITY_BIT

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@...ibm.com>

commit 6f5165e864d240d15675cc2fb5a369d57e1f60d0 upstream.

Use the actual size of the facility list array within the lowcore
structure for the MAX_FACILITY_BIT define instead of a comment which
states what this is good for. This makes it a bit harder to break
things.
