s390: autogenerate compat syscall wrappers

Any system call that takes a pointer argument on s390 requires
a wrapper function to do a 31-to-64 zero-extension, these are
currently generated in arch/s390/kernel/compat_wrapper.c.

On arm64 and x86, we already generate similar wrappers for all
system calls in the place of their definition, just for a different
purpose (they load the arguments from pt_regs).

We can do the same thing here, by adding an asm/syscall_wrapper.h
file with a copy of all the relevant macros to override the generic
version. Besides the addition of the compat entry point, these also
rename the entry points with a __s390_ or __s390x_ prefix, similar
to what we do on arm64 and x86. This in turn requires renaming
a few things, and adding a proper ni_syscall() entry point.

In order to still compile system call definitions that pass an
loff_t argument, the __SC_COMPAT_CAST() macro checks for that
and forces an -ENOSYS error, which was the best I could come up
with. Those functions must obviously not get called from user
space, but instead require hand-written compat_sys_*() handlers,
which fortunately already exist.
