The disabled_wait() function uses its argument as the PSW address when
it stops the CPU with a wait PSW that is disabled for interrupts.
The different callers sometimes use a specific number like 0xdeadbeef
to indicate a specific failure, the early boot code uses 0 and some
other calls sites use __builtin_return_address(0).
At the time a dump is created the current PSW and the registers of a
CPU are written to lowcore to make them avaiable to the dump analysis
tool. For a CPU stopped with disabled_wait the PSW and the registers
do not really make sense together, the PSW address does not point to
the function the registers belong to.
Simplify disabled_wait() by using _THIS_IP_ for the PSW address and
drop the argument to the function.

Reuse __stfle call instead of in-place implementation. __stfle is using
memcpy and memset functions but they are safe to use, since mem.S is
built with -march=z900.

Since als.c is the part of the decompressor only, there is no point in
using init sections for code and data. That's just creating extra
sections in the decompressor image.

Since uncompressed kernel image does not have to be bootable anymore,
move head.S, head_kdump.S and als.c to boot/ folder and compile them
in just in the decompressor.
