s390/perf: obtain sie_block from the right address

Since commit 1179f170 ("s390: fix fpu restore in entry.S"), the
sie_block pointer is located at empty1[1], but in sie_block() it was
taken from empty1[0].

This leads to a random pointer being dereferenced, possibly causing
system crash.

This problem can be observed when running a simple guest with an endless
loop and recording the cpu-clock event:

  sudo perf kvm --guestvmlinux=<guestkernel> --guest top -e cpu-clock

With this fix, the correct guest address is shown.
