Since commit 1179f170b6f0 ("s390: fix fpu restore in entry.S"), the
sie_block pointer is located at empty1[1], but in sie_block() it was
taken from empty1[0].
This leads to a random pointer being dereferenced, possibly causing
system crash.
This problem can be observed when running a simple guest with an endless
loop and recording the cpu-clock event:
sudo perf kvm --guestvmlinux=<guestkernel> --guest top -e cpu-clock
With this fix, the correct guest address is shown.

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.
