additional = """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.
