Subject: [PATCH 5.15 1/9] s390/mm: use non-quiescing sske for KVM switch to keyed guest

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@...ux.ibm.com>

commit 3ae11dbcfac906a8c3a480e98660a823130dc16a upstream.

The switch to a keyed guest does not require a classic sske as the other
guest CPUs are not accessing the key before the switch is complete.
By using the NQ SSKE things are faster especially with multiple guests.
