Commit eb608fb366de ("s390/exceptions: switch to relative exception table entries") ported the relative exception table format from x86, but modified the sorting routine to only normalize the instruction offset field and not the fixup offset field. The result is that the fixup offset of each entry will be relative to the original location of the entry before sorting, likely leading to crashes when those entries are dereferenced.
