[S390] Use diag260 for memory size detection.

Browse Source 
Avoid the tprot loop if diag260 works and reports that there are no
holes in memory. The tprot instruction can lead to a significant delay
in the ipl process if the virtual guest has a lot of memory and the
host is under memory pressure.
