Turning on the requested options selects a number of additional options
and makes a lot of others available. I did a config update with the
disco-proposed (4.19) kernel and selected options based on these rules:

1. If the option is generic (i.e. not turning on hardware support),
match the configuration in the Ubuntu generic kernels for other
architectures.

2. If the option is for hardware support, turn it off unless it was one
of the options requested to be enabled (e.g. VIRTIO_INPUT).

I'm attaching the resulting diff in the config for s390x. Please look it
over and see if it looks okay.

I'll also provide a test build with this config.
