    S390: Optimize __memset_z196.
    
    It turned out that an 256b-mvc instruction which depends on the
    result of a previous 256b-mvc instruction is counterproductive.
    Therefore this patch adjusts the 256b-loop by storing the
    first byte with stc and setting the remaining 255b with mvc.
    Now the 255b-mvc instruction depends on the stc instruction.
