Heiko Carstens 52a1f73d17 s390/fault: Print unmodified PSW address on protection exception
In case of a kernel crash caused by a protection exception, print the
unmodified PSW address as reported by the CPU. The protection exception
handler modifies the PSW address in order to keep fault handling easy,
however that leads to misleading call traces.

Therefore restore the original PSW address before printing it.

Before this change the output in case of a protection exception looks like
this:

 Oops: 0004 ilc:2 [#1]SMP
 Krnl PSW : 0704c00180000000 000003ffe0b40d78 (sysrq_handle_crash+0x28/0x40)

           #000003ffe0b40d72: c0200046b6bc        larl    %r2,000003ffe1417aea
           >000003ffe0b40d78: 92021000            mvi     0(%r1),2
            000003ffe0b40d7c: c0e5ffae03d6        brasl   %r14,000003ffe0101528

With this change it looks like this:

 Oops: 0004 ilc:2 [#1]SMP
 Krnl PSW : 0704c00180000000 000003ffe0b40dfc (sysrq_handle_crash+0x2c/0x40)
            R:0 T:1 IO:1 EX:1 Key:0 M:1 W:0 P:0 AS:3 CC:0 PM:0 RI:0 EA:3
...
 Krnl Code: 000003ffe0b40dec: c010fffffff2        larl    %r1,000003ffe0b40dd0
            000003ffe0b40df2: c0200046b67c        larl    %r2,000003ffe1417aea
           *000003ffe0b40df8: 92021000            mvi     0(%r1),2
           >000003ffe0b40dfc: c0e5ffae03b6        brasl   %r14,000003ffe0101568
            000003ffe0b40e02: 0707                bcr     0,%r7

Note that with this change the PSW address points to the instruction behind
the instruction which caused the exception like it is expected for
protection exceptions.

This also replaces the '#' marker in the disassembly with '*', which allows
to distinguish between new and old behavior.

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 reStructuredText 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.
