To provide access to the set-partition-resource-parameter interface
to user space add a new attribute to hypfs/debugfs:
* s390_hypsfs/diag_304
The data for the query-partition-resource-parameters command can
be access by a read on the attribute. All other diagnose 0x304
requests need to be submitted via ioctl with CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights.

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.
Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
different statements and wanted to change them one after another
whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
for new files.
So unify all of them in one go.

Currently the buffer for diagnose data is allocated in the open function
of the debugfs file and is released in the close function. This has the
drawback that a user (root) can pin that memory by not closing the file.
This patch moves the buffer allocation to the read function. The buffer is
automatically released after the buffer is copied to userspace.
