x86/entry/64/compat: Clear registers for compat syscalls, to reduce speculation attack surface
commit 6b8cf5cc9965673951f1ab3f0e3cf23d06e3e2ee upstream.
At entry userspace may have populated registers with values that could
otherwise be useful in a speculative execution attack. Clear them to
minimize the kernel's attack surface.
