I think this series is basically a very good idea! But...
OK, this is kind of bike-shed-painting now, but since we're currently in
hard freeze anyway and got plenty of time for discussion:
Something that bothers me a little bit is the name of the new function
"program_interrupt_ra()" ... that would IMHO be OK if the old function
"program_interrupt" would still stay, but since that is removed and the
_ra function is the only generic way that is left to inject a program
interrupt, could we maybe name the new function somewhat nicer right
from the start? Something like "s390_program_interrupt" maybe (which is
similar to tcg_s390_program_interrupt and kvm_s390_program_interrupt
that we have already)?
