[PATCH v3 3/3] x86/entry: Clear registers for compat syscalls

[Dan Williams]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

At entry userspace may have populated registers with values that could
be useful in a speculative execution attack. Clear them to minimize the
kernel's attack surface.

[djbw: interleave the clearing with setting up the stack ]
