      s390/cio: allow to reset channel measurement block
      
      Prior to commit 1bc6664bdfb949bc69a08113801e7d6acbf6bc3f a call to
      enable_cmf for a device for which channel measurement was already
      enabled resulted in a reset of the measurement data.
      
      What looked like bugs at the time (a 2nd allocation was triggered
      but failed, reset was called regardless of previous failures, and
      errors have not been reported to userspace) was actually something
      at least one userspace tool depended on. Restore that behavior in
      a sane way.
