Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.
Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

Because of a change in the s390 arch backend of binutils (commit 23ecd77
"Pick the default arch depending on the target size" in binutils repo)
31 bit builds will fail since the linker would now try to create 64 bit
binary output.
Fix this by setting OUTPUT_ARCH to s390:31-bit instead of s390.
Thanks to Andreas Krebbel for figuring out the issue.
Fixes this build error:
LD init/built-in.o
s390x-4.7.2-ld: s390:31-bit architecture of input file
`arch/s390/kernel/head.o' is incompatible with s390:64-bit output

Add the "bzImage" compile target and the necessary code to generate
compressed kernel images. The old style uncompressed "image" target
is preserved, a simple make will build them both.
