[J][PATCH v2 0/2] Long kernel command line on s390x (LP: 1960580)

[frank.heimes at canonical.com]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1960580

Allow to handle command lines with a length of up to 4096 bytes by kernel.
It happened in the past that our supported command line size of 896 bytes
was sometimes too short - while x86, powerpc, and arm each support 2048 bytes.

This requires:
 - an ABI interface to the kernel image, so that tools can figure out if the
   kernel supports large command lines (might be a feature bitmap at a fixed
   location)
 - zipl, genprotimg, qemu, kexec-tools and changes (depending on the kernel
   side implementation)
 - in-kernel ipl support changes (IPL from reader)

v2: converted 277c8389386e ("390/kexec_file: move kernel image size check")
    into a backport, due to required context adjustments

  s390: support command lines longer than 896 bytes
