s390: always build relocatable kernel 

Nathan Chancellor reported several link errors on s390 with
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE disabled, after binutils commit 906f69cf65da ("IBM
zSystems: Issue error for *DBL relocs on misaligned symbols"). The binutils
commit reveals potential miscompiles that might have happened already
before with linker script defined symbols at odd addresses.

A similar bug was recently fixed in the kernel with commit c9305b6c1f
("s390: fix nospec table alignments").

See https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1747 for an analysis
from Ulich Weigand.

Therefore always build a relocatable kernel to avoid this problem. There is
hardly any use-case for non-relocatable kernels, so this shouldn't be
controversial.
