  RTM does not copy the trace info from ASID 4 to the dump.  The SVC Dump,
IEATDUMP, and SYSMDUMP programs use an internal system trace service to 
copy data from the trace snapshot in the TRACE address space into their 
own storage so that they can dump it.  That processing uses virtual 
addresses.  No conversion from real to virtual is needed.  The low order
part of the real address in CR12 (or a snapshot of it in a TBVT) is used
to during formatting to determine the current position within the current 
trace buffer for each CPU.  The high order part of the real address in 
CR12
is used only by the machine in order to determine where to put a trace 
entry.
