[S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection
Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active Linux on System z instances between machines: * z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image) * Suspend/resume For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible. To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ, lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf. The following trigger points call lgr_info_log(): * panic * die * kdump * LGR timer * PSW restart * QDIO recovery * resume This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII characters are shown.
