CCW_CMD_READ_STATUS was introduced with revision 2 of virtio-ccw,
and drivers should only rely on it being implemented when they
negotiated at least that revision with the device.
However, virtio_ccw_get_status() issued READ_STATUS for any
device operating at least at revision 1. If the device accepts
READ_STATUS regardless of the negotiated revision (which some
implementations like QEMU do, even though the spec currently does
not allow it), everything works as intended. While a device
rejecting the command should also be handled gracefully, we will
not be able to see any changes the device makes to the status,
such as setting NEEDS_RESET or setting the status to zero after
a completed reset.
We negotiated the revision to at most 1, as we never bumped the
maximum revision; let's do that now and properly send READ_STATUS
only if we are operating at least at revision 2.

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.
