David Hildenbrand 60f1bf29c0 s390/smp: Fix calling smp_call_ipl_cpu() from ipl CPU
When calling smp_call_ipl_cpu() from the IPL CPU, we will try to read
from pcpu_devices->lowcore. However, due to prefixing, that will result
in reading from absolute address 0 on that CPU. We have to go via the
actual lowcore instead.

This means that right now, we will read lc->nodat_stack == 0 and
therfore work on a very wrong stack.

This BUG essentially broke rebooting under QEMU TCG (which will report
a low address protection exception). And checking under KVM, it is
also broken under KVM. With 1 VCPU it can be easily triggered.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
