With the cssids unrestricted (commit <COMMIT HERE> "s390x/css: unrestrict
cssids") the s390-squash-mcss machine property should not be used.
Actually libvirt never supported this, so the expectation is that
removing it should be pretty painless. But let's play nice and deprecate
it first.

I would like to reference a commit for "s390x/css: unrestrict cssids"
which is currently in RFC status on the list.
