I don't think this is a good name; after all, all of the events are
events for the subchannel :)

This seems to be more of a "we need to update the schib" event...
VFIO_CCW_EVENT_SCHIB_CHANGED? _SCH_CHANGED? _UPDATE_NEEDED?

Tbh, I'm not quite sure this makes sense for me yet... will continue
reading, but this probably needs a 'why'.
