What is concerning about the definition with regards to s390?

It would be good to test (if it is possible to test in QEMU, I am happy
to attempt to do so). As far as I can tell, 31a6a07eefeb placed
arch_get_secureboot() in such a way that the __weak definition would be
used when CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE was disabled, even though ipl_secure_flag
should always be available, which this patch avoids.
Cheers,
Nathan
