I would not be too sure. s390 is very strange, and I would definitely
want to get an Ack from the arch maintainers first.

Actually for this patch to be accepted, we need to get the acks from the
maintainers of s390, sh, and sparc since it touches their code. Doesn't
matter if it is just removing duplicate code. Still need their acks.
