[S390] cio: fix potential overflow in chpid descriptor
The length filed in the chsc response block (if valid) has a value of n*(sizeof(chp_desc))+8 (for the response block header). When we memcopied from the response block to the actual descriptor we copied 8 bytes too much. The bug was not revealed since the descriptor is embedded in struct channel_path. Since we only write one descriptor at a time ignore the length value and use sizeof(*desc).
