s390: disable pfmf for clear page instruction
Wit the introduction of large pages Linux also used pfmf for page clearing. The current implementation is not ideal, though: - currently we set usage intent=0, but cleared pages are often used directly after the clearing - z/VM does not yet provide EDAT - KVM does have to intercept PFMF even for resident pages Lets just the mvcl loop in all cases until we have a well defined pattern were pfmf is besser.
