...because we probably want to indicate invalid command for older
machine types (or is there another facility bit?)
Another question: There's the sclp facilities bit SCLP_HAS_PCI_RECONFIG
- is that really pci, or I/O adapter as for the actual commands?
[The Linux kernel uses the _PCI naming scheme, so I can't derive
anything from that.]
