We'd need to handle machine checks better anyway, and we can trigger
event there. I think we can choose the latter one.

PoP doesn't say anything about the content of SCHIB when cc=3. So it's
fine to remain the last content I guess. I can add comments here and
document in vfio-ccw.txt. Ok?

Yes. Ah, are you implying that we can call update_subch directly without
state machine involved? If so, I agree. There seems no benifit to add
a new VFIO_CCW_EVENT_UPDATE_SUBCH event to the FSM.
