s390 is one of the arches which I build tested and I initially saw this
issue too. I did add CONFIG_HAS_DMA but it turns out that
linux/dma-mapping.h takes care of this by including
asm-generic/dma-mapping-broken.h for you so I removed the #ifdef again.
The header defines the prototypes to allow building but causes a link
time failure if anything actually uses the interfaces.

I just tested a s390x defconfig build again and it appears to be fine.
