[PATCH] s390: cmm guest sender id
An arbitrary guest must not be allowed to trigger cmm actions. Only one specific guest namely the one that serves as the resource monitor may send cmm messages. Add a parameter that allows to specify the guest that may send messages. z/VMs resource manager has the name 'VMRMSVM' which is the default.
