[S390] config option for z9-109 code generation.
Add a kernel config option for the IBM System z9. This will produce
faster code on newer compilers using the -march=z9-109 option.

+ Select this to enable optimizations for IBM System z9-109, IBM
+ System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC), and IBM System z9 Business
+ Class (z9 BC). The kernel will be slightly faster but will not
