Hi Michael,

in general I am fine with these patches and happy to merge them
although I am a little unclear about the status of the kernel side of
things. Please let me know if you would like me to merge the kexec-tools
patches now or wait a bit (for an updated version?).

Also, if you could give me any pointers on how to obtain an s390
cross-compiling environment for x86_64 I would be most grateful.
