s390: prevent leaking kernel address in BEAR
When userspace executes a syscall or gets interrupted, BEAR contains a kernel address when returning to userspace. This make it pretty easy to figure out where the kernel is mapped even with KASLR enabled. To fix this, add lpswe to lowcore and always execute it there, so userspace sees only the lowcore address of lpswe. For this we have to extend both critical_cleanup and the SWITCH_ASYNC macro to also check for lpswe addresses in lowcore.
