s390/stackleak: provide fast __stackleak_poison() implementation



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 0b77d670 ("s390: implement memset16, memset32 & memset64").
