Ursula Braun 508b3c4f71 qeth: allow qdio queue element addresses > 2GB
OSA-adapters do not have an address limitation for the qdio queue
structures except the MAX storage level of the current processor.
And due to a recent z/VM APAR there is no longer a restriction to
allocate qdio structures below 2 GB.
