generated-configure.sh vs. platform.m4

Hi!

I am currently preparing patches to add a couple of missing
architectures to autoconf which we are using in Debian.

For that, I looked at an earlier commit which added s390(x):

changeset:   786:0874bb4707b7
tag:         jdk8-b107
user:        omajid
date:        Wed Sep 11 12:08:34 2013 -0400
summary:     8024320: Add s390(x) detection to platform.m4

In this commit, the definitions were both added to platform.m4 and
generated_configure.sh. However, in Debian, we're carrying local
patches for that which only modify platform.m4 and in Debian, we
usually just run autoconf to make sure the generated configure
scripts are up-to-date.

So, in order to get these definitions upstream, should I patch both
platform.m4 and generated_configure.sh or just the former?

Thanks,
Adrian
