Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
 "The bulk of the s390 patches for 4.13. Some new things but mostly bug
  fixes and cleanups. Noteworthy changes:

   - The SCM block driver is converted to blk-mq

   - Switch s390 to 5 level page tables. The virtual address space for a
     user space process can now have up to 16EB-4KB.

   - Introduce a ELF phdr flag for qemu to avoid the global
     vm.alloc_pgste which forces all processes to large page tables

   - A couple of PCI improvements to improve error recovery

   - Included is the merge of the base support for proper machine checks
     for KVM"

The only user of thread_saved_pc() in non-arch-specific code was removed
in commit 8243d5597793 ("sched/core: Remove pointless printout in
sched_show_task()").  Remove the implementations as well.

Some architectures use thread_saved_pc() in their arch-specific code.
Leave their thread_saved_pc() intact.

Add the logic to check if the machine check happens when the guest is
running. If yes, set the exit reason -EINTR in the machine check's
interrupt handler. Refactor s390_do_machine_check to avoid panicing
the host for some kinds of machine checks which happen
when guest is running.
Reinject the instruction processing damage's machine checks including
Delayed Access Exception instead of damaging the host if it happens
in the guest because it could be caused by improper update on TLB entry
or other software case and impacts the guest only.

The TASK_SIZE for a process should be maximum possible size of the address
space, 2GB for a 31-bit process and 8PB for a 64-bit process. The number
of page table levels required for a given memory layout is a consequence
of the mapped memory areas and their location.

<title>s390: add a system call for guarded storage</title>

<id>916cda1aa1b412d7cf2991c3af7479544942d121</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for
user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command
and pointer to a guarded storage control block:

    s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb);

The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command.

The commands in detail:

0 - GS_ENABLE
    Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The
    initial content of the guarded storage control block will be
    all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use
    load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an
    arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel
    will save and restore the current content of the guarded
    storage registers on context switch.
1 - GS_DISABLE
    Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current
    task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of
    the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of
    these registers is lost.
2 - GS_SET_BC_CB
    Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called
    per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block
    in the task struct of the current task. This control block will
    be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST.
3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB
    Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded-
    storage control block is removed from the task struct that was
    established by GS_SET_BC_CB.
4 - GS_BROADCAST
    Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task.
    Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage
    control block will load this control block and will be enabled
    for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block
    is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored
    control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

Return a sensible value if TASK_SIZE if called from a kernel thread.

This gets us around an issue with copy_mount_options that does a magic
size calculation "TASK_SIZE - (unsigned long)data" while in a kernel
thread and data pointing to kernel space.

<title>s390: restore address space when returning to user space</title>

<id>b5a882fcf146c87cb6b67c6df353e1c042b8773d</id>
<content type='text'>
Unbalanced set_fs usages (e.g. early exit from a function and a
forgotten set_fs(USER_DS) call) may lead to a situation where the
secondary asce is the kernel space asce when returning to user
space. This would allow user space to modify kernel space at will.

This would only be possible with the above mentioned kernel bug,
however we can detect this and fix the secondary asce before returning
to user space.

Therefore a new TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY which is used within set_fs. When
returning to user space check if TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY is set, which
would indicate a bug. If it is set print a message to the console,
fixup the secondary asce, and then return to user space.

This is similar to what is being discussed for x86 and arm:
"[RFC] syscalls: Restore address limit after a syscall".

This is just a preparation patch in order to keep the "restore address

Rename CIF_ASCE to CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY to be unique and specific when
introducing a second CIF_ASCE_SECONDARY CIF flag.
