There was another surprise waiting for me: the ALTERNATIVE macro
within the tools header file is defined in a way that it omits
everything. So I was just lucky that the s390 chacha assembler code
worked, since even without the alternatives the code is working, but
executes code for newer CPU generations, which it shouldn't.

So below is a diff which fixes both:

- Add an s390 specific ALTERNATIVE macro that emits code that is
supposed to work on older CPU generations, instead of no code

- Add a hwcap check to make sure that all CPU capabilities required to
run the assembler code are present

It probably makes sense to squash this also into
"s390/vdso: Wire up getrandom() vdso implementation".

Please feel free to change the code in whatever way you like.
If you prefer separate patches, I will provide them.
