kvm_s390_update_topology_change_report() modifies a single bit within
sca_utility using cmpxchg(). Given that the size of the sca_utility union
is two bytes this generates very inefficient code. Change the size to four
bytes, so better code can be generated.
Even though the size of sca_utility doesn't reflect architecture anymore
this seems to be the easiest and most pragmatic approach to avoid
inefficient code.
