pfault: fix token handling

commit e35c76cd47c244eaa7a74adaabde4d0a1cadb907 upstream.

f6649a7e "[S390] cleanup lowcore access from external interrupts" changed
handling of external interrupts. Instead of letting the external interrupt
handlers accessing the per cpu lowcore the entry code of the kernel reads
already all fields that are necessary and passes them to the handlers.
The pfault interrupt handler was incorrectly converted. It tries to
dereference a value which used to be a pointer to a lowcore field. After
the conversion however it is not anymore the pointer to the field but its
content. So instead of a dereference only a cast is needed to get the
task pointer that caused the pfault.

Fixes a NULL pointer dereference and a subsequent kernel crash:

Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference at virtual kernel address (null)
