currently we don't build any cross compilers on s390x.  Is this a scenario 
which is needed? 
We do that on ppc64el, given that you actually can buy even some workstations.
and if needed, which targets should be supported?

Title:
  debian/rules editconfigs does not work on s390x to change s390x only
  configs

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  Incomplete
Status in linux-5.4 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On s390x

  pull-lp-source linux-5.4
  cd linux-*
  fakeroot ./debian/rules clean
  ./debian/rules editconfig
  dh_testdir;
  /bin/bash -e debian/scripts/misc/kernelconfig editconfigs
  Do you want to edit config: amd64/config.flavour.generic? [Y/n] n
  ...
  scripts/Kconfig.include:35: compiler 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' not found
  make[3]: *** [../scripts/kconfig/Makefile:73: syncconfig] Error 1

  And indeed i do not have x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc crosscompiler available
  to build on s390x for amd64, and also I don't want to touch amd64
  configs. Only s390x ones.

  As a user, I should be able to rebuild ports architecture kernel with
  tweaked config for testing, self-hosted without cross-compilers.
