KVM: s390: add parameter for KVM_CREATE_VM

This patch introduces a new config option for user controlled kernel
virtual machines. It introduces a parameter to KVM_CREATE_VM that
allows to set bits that alter the capabilities of the newly created
virtual machine.
The parameter is passed to kvm_arch_init_vm for all architectures.
The only valid modifier bit for now is KVM_VM_S390_UCONTROL.
This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges and creates a user controlled
virtual machine on s390 architectures.
