Hi Martin.

I noticed that I had not yet beautified the vmlinux.lds file of s390.
Please consider the next two patches for 2.6.24.

The first patch refactor vmlinux.lds to a consistent (and more readable)
style that is being gradually introduced for all archs.
Rationale behind a consistent style is to make across-all-archs
changes less error prone and to better recongnize similar patterns.
The patch moves a few labels so they get the correct value even if
ld decide to align the section a few bytes.

The second patch introduce use of PAGE_SIZE as replacemnt of the
hardcoded value 4096 and convert a few decimal numbers to hex.
