[S390] replace diag10() with diag10_range() function
Currently the diag10() function can only release one page. For exploiters that have to call diag10 on a contiguous memory region this is suboptimal. This patch replaces the diag10() function with diag10_range() that is able to release multiple pages. In addition to that the new function now allows to release memory with addresses higher than 2047 MiB. This was due to a restriction of the diagnose implementation under z/VM prior to release 5.2.
