+QEMU TCG s390x fails an assertion while dispatching an FIXPT_DIVIDE exception on DR when compiled with LTO
+Description of problem:
+When running the attached minimal reproducer, with qemu-system-s390x version 7.2.0 compiled with LTO (`--enable-lto`) with GCC v12.2.1, QEMU fails an assertion and crashes:
+```
+qemu-system-s390x: ../target/s390x/tcg/excp_helper.c:215: do_program_interrupt: Assertion `ilen == 2 || ilen == 4 || ilen == 6' failed.
+Aborted (core dumped)
+```
+Steps to reproduce:
+1. Compile QEMU v7.2.0 for s390x with LTO enabled:
+   ```
+   ../configure --target-list=s390x-softmmu --enable-lto
+   ```
+2. Compile the given reproducer assembler [lpswe-to-pgm.S](/uploads/200fb0e777ddd0ed26f51009e81c26ea/lpswe-to-pgm.S):
+   ```
+   s390x-linux-gnu-gcc -march=z13 -m64 -nostdlib -nostartfiles -static -Wl,-Ttext=0 -Wl,--build-id=none lpswe-to-pgm.S -o lpswe-to-pgm
+   ```
+3. Execute QEMU on the reproducer:
+   ```
+   ./qemu-system-s390x -kernel lpswe-to-pgm
+   ```
+Additional information:
+I have debugged QEMU to try to find the root cause, and I believe I found it, but I'm not sure what the most appropriate way to fix it would be:
+
+QEMU executes the `DR` instruction by executing the `divs32` helper.
+
+When the helper sees that the final division result does not fit in 32 bits, it generates a program interrupt for fixed point divide by calling the `tcg_s390_program_interrupt` function, with the final parameter being the TCG host PC, which is found by calling `GETPC`.
+
+`tcg_s390_program_interrupt` then calls `cpu_restore_state`, and then as long as the host PC is valid, `cpu_restore_state` eventually calls `s390x_restore_state_to_opc` through a long chain of calls, which sets `CPUS390XState::int_pgm_ilen` to a valid value.
+
+Unfortunately when compiling with LTO, the host PC is not valid, which means we don't update `int_pgm_ilen`, resulting in the failed assertion.
+
+The reason the host PC is not valid when compiling with LTO, is that GCC decides to split `helper_divs32` into 2 parts, the actual div logic being the first part, and the call to `GETPC` & `tcg_s390_program_interrupt` being the second part. The way GCC implements it is by turning the second part into a separate function, which the first part calls - see disassembly below. (GCC then re-uses the second part in other similar TCG helpers)
+
+Because we now called the second part before calling `GETPC`, we have a new return address, and `GETPC` returns the address of the first part, instead of the TCG host PC.
