[S390] vmalloc: add vmalloc kernel parameter support
With the kernel parameter 'vmalloc=<size>' the size of the vmalloc area
can be specified. This can be used to increase or decrease the size of
the area. Works in the same way as on some other architectures.
This can be useful for features which make excessive use of vmalloc and
wouldn't work otherwise.
The default sizes remain unchanged: 96MB for 31 bit kernels and 1GB for
64 bit kernels.
