[PATCH v1 3/8] x86/entry/clearregs: Clear registers for 64bit SYSCALL

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

We clear all the non argument registers for 64bit SYSCALLs
to minimize any risk of bad speculation using user values.

So far unused argument registers still leak. To be addressed
in future patches.
