Heiko Carstens cd4386a931 s390/cpcmd,vmcp: avoid GFP_DMA allocations
According to the CP Programming Services manual Diagnose Code 8
"Virtual Console Function" can be used in all addressing modes. Also
the input and output buffers do not have a limitation which specifies
they need to be below the 2GB line.

This is true at least since z/VM 5.4.

Therefore remove the sam31/64 instructions and allow for simple
GFP_KERNEL allocations. This makes it easier to allocate a 1MB page
if the user requested such a large return buffer.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
