s390x/sclp: prevent re-reading the sclp header

We verify the sccb length and then allocate based on that length. The
following access re-reads the sccb again. This can race against other
vCPUs overwriting the length field.

sclp_service_call_protected does not need a change as the ultravisor
provides a consistent snapshot.
