s390/Kconfig: Define non-zero ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE

Define CONFIG_ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE to the eye-catching non-zero value
of 0xdead000000000000, consistent with other architectures. Assert at
compile-time that the poison pointers that include/linux/poison.h
defines based on this illegal pointer are beyond the largest useful
virtual addresses. Also, assert at compile-time that the range of poison
pointers per include/linux/poison.h (currently a range of less than
0x10000 addresses) does not overlap with the range used for address
handles for s390's non-MIO PCI instructions.

This enables s390 to track the DMA mappings by the network stack's
page_pool that was introduced with [0]. Other functional changes are not
intended.

Other archictectures have introduced this for various other reasons with
commit 5c178472af ("riscv: define ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE for 64bit")
commit f6853eb561 ("powerpc/64: Define ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE for 64-bit")
commit bf0c4e0473 ("arm64: kconfig: Move LIST_POISON to a safe value")
commit a29815a333 ("core, x86: make LIST_POISON less deadly")
