Subject: [PATCH percpu/for-3.18-fixes] s390: fix machine check regression caused by the conversion from __get_cpu_var() to this_cpu_ptr()

Commit eb7e7d766326 ("s390: Replace __get_cpu_var uses") broke machine
check handling.
We copy machine check information from per-cpu to a stack variable for
local processing. Next we should zap the per-cpu variable, not the
stack variable.
