I don't see the samples error. :(

I do get this, though:

OBJCOPY arch/s390/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin
GZIP arch/s390/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.gz
AS arch/s390/boot/compressed/head.o
CC arch/s390/boot/compressed/misc.o
LD arch/s390/boot/compressed/piggy.o
s390x-linux-gnu-ld: arch/s390/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.gz: not in ELF format

I'm using:
