Log Message:
Linux kernel S390 boot executable images have the magic string "S390EP"
at 0x10008 (since v3.2). [1]  The parameter area has a pointer to the
kernel version at 0x10428 (since v5.3, which has been 0 since v3.2) [2]
Based on Vasily's implementation from his commit message of his Linux
kernel commit 6abe28197024 ("s390: enable detection of kernel version
from bzImage").
While at it update the identifier to "Linux kernel S390 boot executable
Image", to align it to the other architectures. (From Jens Remus)
