Backport s390x KVM patches from kernel v6.6-rc3 up to v6.9-rc6

Thomas Huth requested to merge thuth/kernel-cs-9:RHEL-29741 into main

JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-29741

Refresh the s390x KVM and other subsystems in the kernel. Some of the later KVM patches in this series originally did not apply cleanly to the RHEL 9 kernel anymore, but instead of reworking them, I rather went the long way and tried to backport as much of the upstream patches as possible to get the s390x subsystem in shape again for upstream s390x KVM patches. So this series is now a rather bigger one, also e.g. refreshing the FPU parts of the s390x kernel. This should hopefully help us in the long run with backporting, considering that we still have to support the RHEL 9 kernel for a couple of years.
