Michael, here are two virtio/s390 patches for 4.8. First, Jing Liu noticed that she could trigger panics while playing around with hvc0 as preferred console but no virtio console: This can be fixed by not discarding our early_put_chars after init (as the minimal fix). This made us wonder why we still have that code around when no current host code supports the old transport: We have no idea whether this still works, and it's probably a good idea to put a deprecation message in there to check whether anyone screams. Patches are against your vhost branch.
