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: a960062e5826 ("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.

The 0x10000 entry point can be called in z/Arch architecture and 64 bit
addressing mode. Therefore this patch removes the unnecessary 31 bit
switch code from the kdump startup function.

Use sigp order code defines in assembly code as well.
With this change all places that use sigp constants should
have been converted to use self describing defines instead
of directly using constants.

Because of a design change for stand-alone kdump the function that
was done by the OS info init function is moved to the boot loader
code. This has two implications that are implemented by this patch:
a) The OS info init function is no longer called by the kernel
b) The diag 308 subcode 1 reset is no longer done by the kdump boot code.
This is necessary because otherwise the operation that is done now
by the boot loader would be reversed. For the normal kexec based
kdump mechansim the reset is already done by the kdump trigger code
(e.g. panic or PSW restart).

This patch provides the architecture specific part of the s390 kdump
support.
