Allow to configure the command line to an arbitrary length, with a
default of 4096 bytes. Also remove COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from
include/uapi/asm/setup.h as this is dynamic now and doesn't tell
anything about the command line size limitations of a new kernel
that might be loaded.

Currently s390 supports a fixed maximum command line length of 896
bytes. This isn't enough as some installers are trying to pass all
configuration data via kernel command line, and even with zfcp alone
it is easy to generate really long command lines. Therefore extend
the command line to 4 kbytes.
In the parm area where the command line is stored there is no indication
of the maximum allowed length, so a new field which contains the maximum
length is added.
The parm area has always been initialized to zero, so with old kernels
this field would read zero. This is important because tools like zipl
could read this field. If it contains a number larger than zero zipl
knows the maximum length that can be stored in the parm area, otherwise
it must assume that it is booting a legacy kernel and only 896 bytes are
available.
The removing of trailing whitespace in head.S is also removed because
code to do this is already present in setup_boot_command_line().

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
