[S390] dasd: tolerate devices that have no feature codes
The DASD device driver reads the feature codes of a device during device initialization. These codes are later used to determine the availability of advanced features like PAV or High Performance FICON. Some very old devices do not support the command to read feature codes and the initialization routine fails. As the feature codes are not necessary for basic DASD operations, we can support such devices by just ignoring missing feature codes.
