Christian Ehrhardt 25097bf153 [S390] s390: move machine flags to lowcore ...

Currently the storage of the machine flags is a globally exported unsigned
long long variable. By moving the storage location into the lowcore struct we
allow assembler code to check machine_flags directly even without needing a
register. Addtionally the lowcore and therefore the machine flags too will be
in cache most of the time.
