Looks good and trivial.

For formal reasons, we may want to wait for the GHA to complete before we <slash>integrate and <slash>sponsor.

There always is confusion wrt what is the right string. For me - and there is some ancient history knowledge attached - 

- s390 indicates the processor architecture (formerly S/370, S/390; nowadays z/Architecture)
- s390x encodes the processor architecture/operating system combination Linux on S/390. 

In the m4 files, both strings are used to identify the processor architecture only.
