I know that some Linux distribution vendors are building JtR for s390
and s390x. They use "make generic".

Great. I might want to add a specific make target for this platform
later on (after some code re-arrangements). I'll contact you about that
(for testing), if you don't mind. There's no performance improvement to
expect from that, though, as "generic" does a good job of selecting the
most suitable settings.

What clock rate? Can you please post /proc/cpuinfo off that system?
This looks like a fine 64-bit system at a fairly low clock rate (by
modern standards).
