commit ae952eea6f4a7e2193f8721a5366049946e012e7 upstream.
Note: the GET_LC macro and all the infrastructe that comes with this does
not exist for this kernel release. Therefore the patch is slightly
different to the upstream variant.
In case of stack corruption stack_invalid() is called and the expectation
is that register r10 contains the last breaking event address. This
dependency is quite subtle and broke a couple of years ago without that
anybody noticed.
Fix this by getting rid of the dependency and read the last breaking event
address from lowcore.
