s390/kdump: fix nosmt kernel parameter
It turned out that SIGP set-multi-threading can only be done once. Therefore switching to a different MT level after switching to sclp.mtid_prev in the dump case fails. As a symptom specifying the "nosmt" parameter currently fails for the kdump kernel and the kernel starts with multi-threading enabled. So fix this and issue diag 308 subcode 1 call after collecting the CPU states for the dump. Also enhance the diag308_reset() function to be usable also with enabled lowcore protection and prefix register != 0. After the reset it is possible to switch the MT level again. We have to do the reset very early in order not to kill the already initialized console. Therefore instead of kmalloc() the corresponding memblock functions have to be used. To avoid copying the sclp cpu code into sclp_early, we now use the simple sigp loop method for CPU detection.
