[PATCH] s390: add read_mostly optimization

Browse Source 
Add a read_mostly section and define __read_mostly to prevent cache line
pollution due to writes for mostly read variables.  In addition fix the
incorrect alignment of the cache_line_aligned data section.  s390 has a
cacheline size of 256 bytes.
