kernel: s390/qeth: Fix kernel panic after setting hsuid

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's s390/qeth component. A local attacker with privileges to manage network devices could trigger a kernel panic by setting the hsuid attribute on an IQD Layer3 device while its network interface is active. This occurs because the kernel attempts to execute a nu...
