Should indicate SEIDs as such. Notes: * EIDs are uppercase only - we should silently convert to all uppercase * Check latest SLD for valid special characters. * Make sure only authorized users are allowed to modify EIDs - reading is OK for everybody, but writing requires authorization. * SEIDs can be disabled, but (obviously) not set. * EID config must be available on module load. * zOS sets the UEIDs globally, i.e. not separate SMC-D and SMC-R. Business Case: Required for users that need to strictly separate/prevent certain OS images from utilizing ISM devices for communication (Security). Furthermore, z/OS disables SEID per default, and will likely have users utilize fine-grained EIDs. Hence we need to be able to support UEIDs for compatibility. This feature is for the kernel part.
