[S390] Improve address space mode selection.
Introduce user_mode to replace the two variables switch_amode and s390_noexec. There are three valid combinations of the old values: 1) switch_amode == 0 && s390_noexec == 0 2) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 0 3) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 1 They get replaced by 1) user_mode == HOME_SPACE_MODE 2) user_mode == PRIMARY_SPACE_MODE 3) user_mode == SECONDARY_SPACE_MODE The new kernel parameter user_mode=[primary,secondary,home] lets you choose the address space mode the user space processes should use. In addition the CONFIG_S390_SWITCH_AMODE config option is removed. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
