Channel path vary is currently broken: channel paths which are varied
offline are still used by Linux. The reason for this is that:
* the path mask indicating which paths of an I/O device can be used
is reset by each internal I/O request
* the logic that checks if a path group is already in its designated
target state incorrectly interprets the result "is correctly set"
as "is correctly set and available"
Fix this by resetting the path mask only for internal I/O requests
which affect the path mask and by correcting the pgid check logic.

Improve error recovery for internal I/Os by repeating each I/O
256 times per path to cope with long-running non-permanent error
conditions. Also retry each path twice to cope with link flapping,
i.e. single paths becoming unavailable in the order in which they
are tried.

Reduce code duplication by introducing a central infrastructure to
perform an internal I/O operation on a CCW device.
