debug_sprintf_event/exception are called even for debug events
with a disabling debug level. All other functions already do
the check in a wrapper function. Lets do the same here.
Due to the var_args the compiler rejects to make this function
inline. So let's wrap this via a macro.
This patch saves around 80 ns on my z196 for a KVM round trip (we
have two debug statements for entry and exit) when KVM is build as
a module.
The savings for built-in drivers is smaller as we then avoid the
PLT overhead for a function call.

Add the debug_level_enabled() function to check if debug events for
a particular level would be logged.  This might help to save cycles
for debug events that require additional information collection.

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.

Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
different statements and wanted to change them one after another
whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
for new files.
So unify all of them in one go.

<title>[S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection</title>

Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active
Linux on System z instances between machines:
* z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image)
* Suspend/resume
For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest
Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it
should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live
system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible.
To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function
lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the
last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ,
lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf.

The following trigger points call lgr_info_log():
* panic
* die
* kdump
* LGR timer
* PSW restart
* QDIO recovery
* resume

This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII
characters are shown.

The kernel now has kmemleak and kmemtrace so there's no reason to keep
this ugly s390 hack around. I am not sure how it's supposed to work on
SMP anyway as it uses a global variable to temporarily store the return
value of all kmalloc() calls:

  void *b;

  #define kmalloc(x...) (PRINT_INFO(" kmalloc %p\n",b=kmalloc(x)),b)
