Kernel support for LCS devices was removed with commit 6cccb3bb0561
("s390/net: Remove LCS driver") in kernel v6.15. Remove the associated
zdev support for the lcs device type.

zdev's initramfs hook does not add directives for enabling the root
device to the initrd if the root device is only configured in the
active configuration. As a result, a reboot using the new initrd fails
because the root device cannot be found.
This situation can occur for example when the zdev initramfs hook is
called from within an installer, where devices are only enabled in the
active configuration.
Address this situation by considering both the active and persistent
configuration of the root device during initramfs configuration. In case
the device is configured in both configurations, the persistent
configuration takes precedence.

PCI and crypto devices defined using the IBM Z Dynamic Partition Manager
(DPM) will start in an offline/unconfigured state that requires manual
intervention before the associated Linux function can be used. This
results for example in PCI networking interfaces being unavailable in a
distribution installer system.
Fix this by providing a udev rule and initial RAM-disk logic that
automatically enables PCI and crypto devices either during boot, or when
they are defined at run-time. This processing can be suppressed by
specifying the "rd.zdev=no-auto" parameter on the kernel command line.
Auto-configuration is limited to Linux running in DPM LPARs because
PCI-functions and crypto devices defined by DPM are always intended for
use by a single LPAR only.
For Linux running in classic-mode LPARs or virtual machines, leaving PCI
and crypto devices in an offline state may be useful to allow defining a
device as available to multiple systems, where only the system that
intends to make use of the device should enable it.

Unfortunately zdev hook already exists in Ubuntu, from an unrelated
project. ZFS uses zdev/zpool names, and ships a zdev hook to do ZFS
specific initialisation. It is available on s390x and thus results in
file-conflict upon installing both. Thus renaming this zdev hook to
s390-tools-zdev.
