A Linux binary will have the string "S390EP" at address 0x10008,
which is important in getting the guest up off the ground. In the
case of a reboot (specifically chreipl going to a new device),
we should defer to the PSW at address zero for the new config,
which will re-write "S390EP" from the new image.
Let's clear it out at this point so that a reipl to, say, a DASD
passthrough device drives the IPL path from scratch without disrupting
disrupting the order of operations for other boots.
Rather than hardcoding the address of this magic (again), let's
define it somewhere so that the two users are visibly related.

Let's move some of the PSW mask defines into s390-arch.h and use them
in jump2ipl.c. Also let's introduce a new constant for the address
mask of 8 byte (short) PSWs.

This constant enables 64 bit addressing, not the ESAME architecture,
so it shouldn't be named ZMODE.

The POP states that for a list directed IPL the IPLB is stored into
memory by the machine loader and its address is stored at offset 0x14
of the lowcore.
ZIPL currently uses the address in offset 0x14 to access the IPLB and
acquire flags about secure boot. If the IPLB address points into
memory which has an unsupported mix of flags set, ZIPL will panic
instead of booting the OS.
As the lowcore can have quite a high entropy for a guest that did drop
out of protected mode (i.e. rebooted) we encountered the ZIPL panic
quite often.

Create a new header for basic architecture specific definitions and add a
mapping of low core memory. This mapping will be used by the real dasd boot
process.
