S390: Always use svc 0
On s390x syscalls are triggered by svc instruction. One can
pass the syscall number encoded in the instruction "svc 123"
or by storing it in r1:
lghi r1,123
svc 0

If the syscall number is encoded in the instruction, this can
cause broken syscall restarts.  Therefore this patch is now just
passing the syscall number in r1.

As information, the "svc 0" feature was introduced in kernel 2.5.62:
