s390/dasd: mark DASD devices as non rotational
We were able to reduce the CPU overhead of big paging scenarios when announcing our paging disks as non-rotational. Almost all dasd devices are implemented in storage servers with cache, raid, striping and lots of magic. There is no point in optimizing the disk schedulers and swap code for a single platter moving arm rotational disks. Given the complexity of the setup and the fact that this change is mostly to disable the additional overhead in swap code, lets keep the other functionality unchanged and do not disable the this device as entropy source - unlike other non-rotational devices.
