Subject: [PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 13/96] s390/boot: fix boot of compressed kernel built with gcc 4.9

3.13.11-ckt30 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@...ibm.com>

commit cedbecd60a8effc66dc8bed4e5489ff9365c9b19 upstream.

Add -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks to CFLAGS for the code in
arch/s390/boot. Without the option a compressed kernel built with
gcc 4.9 won't boot.
