## User story 

 A majority of our s390x test runs for SLE Micro fail when testing kvm because most of the s390 workers do not have the required SIE (start-interpretive execution) CPU feature. 

 To solve this issue we would need another worker class, e.g. `s390-kvm-sle12-virt` for workers that hold this feature. 

 Support for this feature can be done by querying `/proc/cpuinfo` on the corresponding worker: 

 ~~~ 
 grep sie /proc/cpuinfo 
 ~~~ 

 ## Acceptance criteria 
 * Add new worker class e.g. `s390-kvm-sle12-virt` for s390x workers with SIE support 

 ## Tasks 
 * Add new worker class e.g. `s390-kvm-sle12-virt` for s390x workers with SIE support 

 ## Further details 
 * The name `s390-kvm-sle12-virt` is a spontaneous suggestion and can be replace with a better fitting one
