[S390] 3270: fix race with stack local wait_queue_head_t.
A wait_event call with a stack local wait_queue_head_t structure that is
used to do the wake up for the wait_event is inherently racy. After the
wait_event finished the wake_up call might not have completed yet.
Remove the stack local wait_queue_head_t from raw3270_start_init and
use the global raw3270_wait_queue instead.
