You are right, it should be in:
../../arch/s390/include/asm/vdso/processor.h

Sure.

As Eugenio has posted a patchset to fix the compilation, which does
not seems to be merged yet and may have some merging conflicts with
this patchset, so either wait for the Eugenio' patchset to be merged
before proceeding with this patchset, or explicitly note the dependency
of Eugenio' patchset when sending the new version of patchset. I am not
familiar with the merging flow of virtio to say which way is better, any
suggestion how to proceed with this patchset?
