Do you happen to run with a recent host kernel that has 

commit 7041d28115e91f2144f811ffe8a195c696b1e1d0
    s390: scrub registers on kernel entry and KVM exit





Can you run with this on top

To me it looks like that the critical section cleanup (interrupt during system 
call entry) might
save the registers again into ptregs but we have already zeroed out r0.
This patch moves the clearing of r0 after sysc_do_svc, which should fix the 
critical
section cleanup.

Adding Martin and Heiko. Will spin a patch.
