Subject: [PATCH v1 1/5] s390/kdump: implement is_kdump_kernel()

s390x currently always results in is_kdump_kernel() == false, because
it sets "elfcorehdr_addr = ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX;" early during setup_arch to
deactivate the elfcorehdr= kernel parameter.

Let's follow the powerpc example and implement our own logic.

This is required for virtio-mem to reliably identify a kdump
environment to not try hotplugging memory.
