Subject: [PATCH v11 2/2] s390: virtio: PV needs VIRTIO I/O device protection

If protected virtualization is active on s390, VIRTIO has only retricted
access to the guest memory.
Define CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_RESTRICTED_VIRTIO_MEMORY_ACCESS and export
arch_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access to advertize VIRTIO if that's
the case, preventing a host error on access attempt.
