s390/kernel: Fix smp_call_ipl_cpu() for offline CPUs
If the IPL CPU is offline, currently the pcpu_delegate() function
used by smp_call_ipl_cpu() does not work because pcpu_delegate()
modifies the lowcore of the target CPU. In case of an offline
IPL CPU currently the prefix register is zero but pcpu->lowcore
still points to the old prefix page. Therefore the lowcore changes
done by pcpu_delegate() have no effect.
With this fix pcpu_delegate() now uses memcpy_absolute() and therefore
also prepares the absolute zero lowcore if the target CPU has prefix
register zero.
