s390/dump: fix old lowcore virtual vs physical address confusion



[ Upstream commit dc306186 ]

Virtual addresses of vmcore_info and os_info members are
wrongly passed to copy_oldmem_kernel(), while the function
expects physical address of the source. Instead, __pa()
macro should have been applied.

Yet, use of __pa() macro could be somehow confusing, since
copy_oldmem_kernel() may treat the source as an offset, not
as a direct physical address (that depens from the oldmem
availability and location).

Fix the virtual vs physical address confusion and make the
way the old lowcore is read consistent across all sources.
