Provide an s390 specific __stackleak_poison() implementation which is
faster than the generic variant.
For the original implementation with an enforced 4kb stackframe for the
getpid() system call the system call overhead increases by a factor of 3 if
the stackleak feature is enabled. Using the s390 mvc based variant this is
reduced to an increase of 25% instead.
This is within the expected area, since the mvc based implementation is
more or less a memset64() variant which comes with similar results. See
commit 0b77d6701cf8 ("s390: implement memset16, memset32 & memset64").

With that in mind, could we use memset64() directly (if we made it
noninstr-safe)?
Mark.
