I checked the Linux code (arch/s390/kernel/traps.c) and Linux uses the FPC (and
not the lowcore field) to decide about the signal (SIGFPE) and si_code. So we want
to have the correct DXC/VXC value.

Now, I wrote a short test program that does
feenableexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO);
and a division by zero.
and attached gdb to that guest together with a breakpoint on the divide (and the instruction
after).
I get the pint exit for the instruction after (as it is suppressing) and at this point in
time the guest fpc already contains the correct DXC value. So you patch will certainly not
hurt, but it seems not necessary.

Still trying to look further if I missed something.

maybe reuse FPC_DXC_MASK instead of 0xff00 ?
