I found that in mainline since below commit, above define should be
useless, but if distribution with older kernel does need your fix, so in
mainline the right fix should be dropping the s390 part about these
macros usage.
Anyway this need a comment from Michael.

s390/kdump: remove code to create ELF notes in the crashed system
The s390 architecture can store the CPU registers of the crashed
system
after the kdump kernel has been started and this is the preferred
way.
Remove the remaining code fragments that deal with storing CPU
registers
while the crashed system is still active.

Hold on the ack because of the new findings, wait for Michael's
feedback.
