The new machine loader on z15 always creates an IPL Report block and
thus sets the IPL_PL_FLAG_IPLSR even when secure boot is disabled. This
causes the wrong message being printed at boot. Fix this by checking for
IPL_PL_FLAG_SIPL instead.

<title>s390: avoid misusing CALL_ON_STACK for task stack setup</title>

<content type='text'>
CALL_ON_STACK is intended to be used for temporary stack switching with
potential return to the caller.

When CALL_ON_STACK is misused to switch from nodat stack to task stack
back_chain information would later lead stack unwinder from task stack into
(per cpu) nodat stack which is reused for other purposes. This would
yield confusing unwinding result or errors.

To avoid that introduce CALL_ON_STACK_NORETURN to be used instead. It
makes sure that back_chain is zeroed and unwinder finishes gracefully
ending up at task pt_regs.

Add detection for machine types 0x8562 and 8x8561 and set the ELF platform
name to z15. Add the miscellaneous-instruction-extension 3 facility to
the list of facilities for z15.

And allow to generate code that only runs on a z15 machine.

Few other crucial memory setup options are already handled in
the startup code. Those values are needed by kaslr and kasan
implementations. "vmalloc" is the last piece required for future
improvements such as early decision on kernel page levels depth required
for actual memory setup, as well as vmalloc memory area access monitoring
in kasan.

After some investigation it doesn't look like init_mm fields
start_code/end_code are used anywhere besides potentially in dump_mm for
debugging purposes. Originally the value of 0 for start_code reflected
the presence of lowcore and early boot code. But with kaslr in place
start_code/end_code range should not span over unoccupied by the code
segment memory. So, adjust init_mm start_code to point at the beginning
of the code segment like other architectures do it.

There never have been distributions that shiped with CONFIG_SMP=n for
s390. In addition the kernel currently doesn't even compile with
CONFIG_SMP=n for s390. Most likely it wouldn't even work, even if we
fix the compile error, since nobody tests it, since there is no use
case that I can think of.
Therefore simply enforce CONFIG_SMP and get rid of some more or
less unused code.

Rework the dump_trace() stack unwinder interface to support different
unwinding algorithms. The new interface looks like this:

	struct unwind_state state;
	unwind_for_each_frame(&amp;state, task, regs, start_stack)
		do_something(state.sp, state.ip, state.reliable);

The unwind_bc.c file contains the implementation for the classic
back-chain unwinder.

One positive side effect of the new code is it now handles ftraced
functions gracefully. It prints the real name of the return function
instead of 'return_to_handler'.

This patch adds support for relocating the kernel to a random address.
The random kernel offset is obtained from cpacf, using either TRNG, PRNO,
or KMC_PRNG, depending on supported MSA level.

KERNELOFFSET is added to vmcoreinfo, for crash --kaslr support.
