Dominik's patch has somehow managed to change the type of
pageblock_order.  Before the patch, pageblock_order expands to "(20 -
12)".  After the patch, pageblock_order expands to "(HPAGE_SHIFT -
12)".

And on s390, HPAGE_SHIFT is unsigned int.  On x86 HPAGE_SHIFT has type
int.  I suggest the fix here is to make s390's HPAGE_SHIFT have type
int as well.
