[PATCH entry v2 1/6] x86/entry/compat: Clear RAX high bits on Xen PV SYSENTER
From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Fri Jul 03 2020 - 13:03:06 EST
Move the cleari the high bits of RAX after Xen PV joins the SYSENTER
path so that Xen PV doesn't skip it.
Arguably we should delete this code instead, but that would belong
in the merge window.
Fixes: ffae641f5747 ("x86/entry/64/compat: Fix Xen PV SYSENTER frame setup")
