[Bug 2108997] Re: [UBUNTU 22.04] GDB: Internal binutils code requires updates made for IBM z17 in binutils already

[Frank Heimes]

The binutils maintainer told me that binutils for question will be
updated anyway to latest, so nothing to do here, setting questing to
Invalid.

Bug description:
  With IBM having announced the new IBM z17, Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04
  should be enabled to run properly on the latest s390x hardware.

  While plucky has already the required patches included, please
  backport to noble and jammy the GNU Binutils mainline commit
  981fe5fd80fa ("s390: Add support for z17 as CPU name"), which adds the
  real CPU name "z17" as alternative for "arch15".
