Heiko Carstens	f84d88ed3b	s390/boot: convert parmarea to C ... Convert parmarea to C, which makes it much easier to initialize it. No need to keep offsets in assembler code in sync with struct parmarea anymore.

Heiko Carstens	834979c27f	s390/boot: convert initial lowcore to C ... Convert initial lowcore to C and use proper defines and structures to initialize it. This should make the z/VM ipl procedure a bit less magic.

Heiko Carstens	edd4a86673	s390/boot: get rid of startup archive ... The final kernel image is created by linking decompressor object files with a startup archive. The startup archive file however does not contain only optional code and data which can be discarded if not referenced. It also contains mandatory object data like head.o which must never be discarded, even if not referenced. Move the decompresser code and linker script to the boot directory and get rid of the startup archive so everything is kept during link time.
