s390/nmi: consistently enable machine checks in trap_init()
The kernel starts with machine checks disabled (machine check mask bit in the PSW is zero), and machine checks are enabled when trap_init() is called. The rationale is that this allows to assume that the system is initialized up to a certain point before the machine check handler may be invoked. However the implementation is incomplete: all new PSW masks in lowcore have the machine check mask bit. This means that e.g. for any early program check machine checks are enabled within the program check handler. This contradicts the whole point of enabling machine checks at a single place. Change this and initialize all new PSWs in lowcore so they have the machine check mask bit not set. Set the bit in all masks in trap_init(). This way machine check enabling is consistent.
