As pointed out by Paulo Marques <pmarques@grupopie.com> MAX_IPD_TIME is by
a factor of ten too small. Since this means that we allow ten times more
IPDs in the intended time frame this could result in a cpu check stop of a
physical cpu.

In case of an instruction processing damage (IPD) machine check in kernel mode
the resulting action is always to stop the kernel. This is not necessarily
the best solution since a retry of the failing instruction might succeed. Add
logic to retry the instruction if no more than 30 instruction processing
damage checks occured in the last 5 minutes.

Sanitize some s390 Kconfig options. We have ARCH_S390, ARCH_S390X,
ARCH_S390_31, 64BIT, S390_SUPPORT and COMPAT. Replace these 6 options by
S390, 64BIT and COMPAT.

Add support for multiple subchannel sets. Works with arbitrary devices in
subchannel set 1 and is transparent to device drivers. Although currently
only two subchannel sets are available, this will work with the architectured
maximum number of subchannel sets as well.

The new machine check handler still has a few bugs.
1) The system entry time has to be stored in the machine check handler,
2) the machine check return psw may not be stored at the usual place
because it might overwrite the return psw of the interrupted context,
3) the return address for the call to s390_handle_mcck in the i/o interrupt
handler is not correct,
4) the system call cleanup has to take the different save area of the
machine check handler into account,
5) the machine check handler may not call UPDATE_VTIME before
CREATE_STACK_FRAME, and
6) the io leave path needs a critical section cleanup to make sure that the
TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit is really checked before switching back to user space.

Improved machine check handling. Kernel is now able to receive machine checks
while in kernel mode (system call, interrupt and program check handling).
Also register validation is now performed.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
