This patch collides with a patch I have still queued

s390x: smp: Use full PSW to bringup new cpu
Up to now we ignored the psw mask and only used the psw address when
bringing up a new cpu. For DAT we need to also load the mask, so let's
do that.

In that patch we use a lpswe to jump to the target code, not a br. So the
return address will no longer be stored in %14 and this code here would stop working
AFAIKS.
Shall I drop that patch for now?
