Change-recording override (CO) was never implemented in any machine. According to the architecture it is unpredictable if a translation-specification exception will be recognized if the bit is set and EDAT1 does not apply. Therefore the easiest solution is to simply ignore the bit.
This also fixes commit cd1836f583d7 ("KVM: s390: instruction-execution-protection support"). A guest may enable instruction-execution-protection (IEP) but not EDAT1. In such a case the guest_translate() function (arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.c) will report a specification exception on pages that have the IEP bit set while it should not.
It might make sense to add full IEP support to guest_translate() and the GACC_IFETCH case. However, as far as I can tell the GACC_IFETCH case is currently only used after an instruction was executed in order to fetch the failing instruction. So there is no additional problem *currently*.
