I sent you an exact link to the thread on marc in an earlier message...
not many others archive linux-arch or linux-mm unfortunately.

But no I didn't see a discussion of why s390 does have a bit, beyond the
s390 devs just asserting there is one, and providing a patch ;) I never
saw any of the discussions concluding that s390 does *not* have a bit
spare. Do you recall if they were public?
