Subject[patch 2/2] s390: Export vmcoreinfo note
From: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch defines for s390 an ABI defined pointer to the vmcoreinfo note at
a well known address. With this patch tools are able to find this information
in dumps created by stand-alone or hypervisor dump tools.
