Should we add IF_PRIV to insn-data.h.inc? POp says PCKMO is privileged,
but currently it seems to be defined as reachable from userspace:

     D(0xb928, PCKMO,   RRE,   MSA3, 0, 0, 0, 0, msa, 0, 
S390_FEAT_TYPE_PCKMO)

This may mess up the test, but it should be convertible to a system
test, which can be written in C, see tests/tcg/s390x/mvc-smc.c.
