Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
 "There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:

   - a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual
     topology found on z13 machines.  Performance tests showed up to 8
     percent gain with the additional domain.

   - the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field
     multiply and sum SIMD instruction to speed up crc-32 and crc-32c.

   - proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in
     the generic vmlinux.lds linker script definitions.

   - kcov instrumentation support.  A prerequisite for that is the
     inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
     net/iucv/iucv.c change.

   - support for 2GB pages is added to the hugetlbfs backend.

  Then there are two removals:

   - the oprofile hardware sampling support is dead code and is removed.
     The oprofile user space uses the perf interface nowadays.

   - the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded
     be the STP clock synchronization.  And it always has been
     "interesting" code..

  And the usual bug fixes and cleanups"
