This implies device gone. Do we also want to trigger some event, or
just wait until a machine check comes around and we're notified in the
normal way? (Probably the latter.)

We might want to add documentation that schib_area contains the schib
from the last successful invocation of stsch (if any). That makes sense
as the schib remains unchanged for cc=3 after stsch anyway, but it
can't hurt to spell it out.

Does it makes to trigger this through the state machine if we always do
the same action and never change state?

Else, looks good.
