s390/pfault: Fix virtual vs physical address confusion
commit d879ac6756b662a085a743e76023c768c3241579 upstream.
When Linux is running as guest, runs a user space process and the
user space process accesses a page that the host has paged out,
the guest gets a pfault interrupt and schedules a different process.
Without this mechanism the host would have to suspend the whole
virtual CPU until the page has been paged in.
To setup the pfault interrupt the real address of parameter list
should be passed to DIAGNOSE 0x258, but a virtual address is passed
instead.
That has a performance impact, since the pfault setup never succeeds,
the interrupt is never delivered to a guest and the whole virtual CPU
is suspended as result.
