s390/hypfs: Enable limited access during lockdown

[ Upstream commit 3868f910440c47cd5d158776be4ba4e2186beda7 ]

When kernel lockdown is active, debugfs_locked_down() blocks access to
hypfs files that register ioctl callbacks, even if the ioctl interface
is not required for a function. This unnecessarily breaks userspace
tools that only rely on read operations.

Resolve this by registering a minimal set of file operations during
lockdown, avoiding ioctl registration and preserving access for affected
tooling.

Note that this change restores hypfs functionality when lockdown is
active from early boot (e.g. via lockdown=integrity kernel parameter),
but does not apply to scenarios where lockdown is enabled dynamically
while Linux is running.
