Subject: [PATCH] initrd: Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390

The local variable 'rotate' is not used on s390, and building the kernel
with W=1 generates the following warning:

init/do_mounts_rd.c:192:17: warning: variable 'rotate' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
  192 |         unsigned short rotate = 0;
      |                        ^
1 warning generated.

Fix this by declaring and using 'rotate' only when CONFIG_S390 is not
defined.
