[PATCHv2 12/19] arm64: zero GPRs upon entry from EL0
From: Mark Rutland
Date: Fri Jun 01 2018 - 07:27:44 EST
We can zero GPRs x0 - x29 upon entry from EL0 to make it harder for
userspace to control values consumed by speculative gadgets.
We don't blat x30, since this is stashed much later, and we'll blat it
before invoking C code.
