Well, the systemd integration uses the kexec program provided by
the kexec-tools, no?

The logical first step is to update to a kexec-tools package that includes
the kexec_file_load code for s390, the backport of the patch to the
18.04 package version should be trivial (famous last words..).

The second step is to look into building signed kernels.
