[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.
