mainlining shenanigans
Symptom: Error message "Configuring the VNIC characteristics failed"
in dmesg whenever an OSA interface on z15 is set online.
The VNIC characteristics get re-programmed when setting a L2 device
online. This follows the selected 'wanted' characteristics - with the
exception that the INVISIBLE characteristic unconditionally gets
switched off.
For devices that don't support INVISIBLE (ie. OSA), the resulting
IO failure raises a noisy error message
("Configuring the VNIC characteristics failed").
For IQD, INVISIBLE is off by default anyways.
So don't unnecessarily special-case the INVISIBLE characteristic, and
thereby suppress the misleading error message on OSA devices.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
