The 31-bit assembler code for the early sclp console is error
prone as git commit fde24b54d976cc123506695c17db01438a11b673
"s390/sclp: clear upper register halves in _sclp_print_early"
has shown.
Convert the assembler code to C.

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e58 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.
Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

Make use of gcc's hotpatch support to generate better code for ftrace
function tracing.
The generated code now contains only a six byte nop in each function
prologue instead of a 24 byte code block which will be runtime patched to
support function tracing.
With the new code generation the runtime overhead for supporting function
tracing is close to zero, while the original code did show a significant
performance impact.

Currently the march flag gets only passed to C files, but not to
assembler files.
This means that we can't add new instructions like e.g. aghik to asm
files, since the assembler doesn't know of the new instructions if
the appropriate march flag isn't specified.
So also pass the march flag when compiling assembler files as well.

Add a new Kconfig choice group which allows to configure how gcc should
tune the generated code (via -mtune option).
By default the -mtune parameter will match the -march parameter.
This is a rather large patch, but I wouldn't know how to make this shorter
unfortunately.

Currently we only set the -march compiler option if the kbuild
system figured out that the compiler actually supports the selected
architecture (cc-option test).
In result this means that no -march compiler option is set when an
unsupported cpu architecture of the current compiler is selected.
The kernel compile will afterwards succeed but with the default
architecture instead of the (unsupported) selected one.
Change this behaviour, so compiles will fail if the compiler does
not support the selected cpu architecture.

The xfs module uses a lot of tracepoint, with TRACEPOINTS=y and a
few debugging options the GOT table of the xfs module will get
bigger than 4K. To get a working xfs module it needs to be compiled
with -fPIC instead of -fpic. To play safe use -fPIC for all modules.

Allow to generate code that only runs on zEC12 machines.
Also add a check which prevents the kernel to run on machines which
do not have any of the following new facilities installed:
- (48) decimal-floating-point zoned-conversion
- (49) execution-hint
- (49) load-and-trap
- (49) miscellaneous-instruction-extensions
- (49) processor-assist
- (50) constrained transactional-execution
- (73) transactional-execution
48, 49, 50 and 73 are the bit numbers of the facility indications for
each of the required facilities.
Note that we assume that user-space gets compiled with the same
compiler options, therefore we also test for a dfp facility even
if the kernel doesn't make use of it.

The vmlinux file for s390 contains a currently unused entry point,
which is specified in two different locations: the linker script
and the makefile. As it happens both definitions are different and
the linker file is broken (_start does not exist) and the makefile
specifies an entry point which makes no sense (the SALIPL loader
entry point).
So lets get rid of one definition (the makefile) and use the entry
point of all other ipl methods (0x10000 -> startup) to be consistent.

Newer gcc versions offer an architecture-independent option to check
the stack size and warn if it reaches a certain limit. This option
already existed for s390 by using -mwarn-dynamicstack. Since one
stack check option is enough remove the s390 specific stack check
but keep the option that warns about dynamic stack usage because
that is not covered by the generic option.

It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD
on the command line - which is only used when building modules.
{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile
in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
additional options to AS, CC, LD when building modules
without overriding the original value.
Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE
that is used by arch specific files and free up
{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE so they can be assigned on
the command line.
All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.
Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both
AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped.
So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by
two assignmnets.
Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped
without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage
from this.

This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries
(aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization
instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each.
This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest
kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible.
The following source files are introduced by this patch
arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all
arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into
sie64a to enter the guest machine context
arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest
context via SIE, and switches world before and after that
include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run
virtual machines on the mainframe
include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to
guest register content
arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory
arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by
later patches

The variable AFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to

This patch replace use of AFLAGS with KBUILD_AFLAGS all over
the tree.
Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k, s390
