RFC PATCH 1/1 s390: Autoload uvdevice module based on CPU feature

With this patch the uvdevice will be automatically loaded when the facility 158 is present. This is accomplished by using ``module_cpu_feature_match`` and adding HWCAP_UV connected to to facility 158.

Please split this into two patches: one which adds the hwcap bit, and one which makes use of it.

Also please make sure the subject contains (nearly) always a component, which would be "s390/hwcaps: ..." in this case.

Just keep the comment short like all other one and take the PoP as reference. I would have expected something like:
"ultravisor-call (secure execution)"

Besides that, everything looks ok as far as I can tell.
