You probably need to do "git submodule init"/"git submodule update" so
that it picks up the in-tree meson (0.55.0).
If you want to test on s390, just testing the boot ROM would be great
(patch 3). That one does not need Meson at all; the purpose of the
patch is just to decouple the boot ROM makefile from rules.mak, which
allows to drop some of the contents of rules.mak.
