This sp value gets written to the struct pt_regs that is built on the stack, and passed to the fault handlers, see 'el1_sp_pc' in kernel/entry.S, which goes on to call do_sp_pc_abort() which prints this value out. (Other fault handlers may make decisions based on this value). It should be present and correct.
