Having a weak definition of kexec_file_loaders causes trouble on s390 with 
gcc 4.8 (newer versions seem to work fine). For me it looks like that in this
version gcc doesn't recognize __weak but use the default value for
optimization. This leads to _kexec_kernel_image_probe to always return ENOEXEC
because the for-loop gets optimized out.

The problem can easily be worked around by declaring kexec_file_loaders in
include/linux/kexec.h and defining it in arch code. In particular doing this

diff --git a/include/linux/kexec.h b/include/linux/kexec.h

 static int kexec_calculate_store_digests(struct kimage *image);
 #else

A nice side effect of this solution is, that a developer who forgets to define
kexec_file_loaders gets a linker error. So he directly knows what's missing
instead of first having to find out where/why an error gets returned.

Otherwise the series is fine for me.

Thanks
