S390's init_idle_preempt_count(p, cpu) doesn't actually let us initialize the
preempt_count of the requested CPU's idle task: it unconditionally writes
to the current CPU's. This clearly conflicts with idle_threads_init(),
which intends to initialize *all* the idle tasks, including their
preempt_count (or their CPU's, if the arch uses a per-CPU preempt_count).
Unfortunately, it seems the way s390 does things doesn't let us initialize
every possible CPU's preempt_count early on, as the pages where this
resides are only allocated when a CPU is brought up and are freed when it
is brought down.
Let the arch-specific code set a CPU's preempt_count when its lowcore is
allocated, and turn init_idle_preempt_count() into an empty stub.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
