x86/asm/entry: Clear EXTRA_REGS for all executable formats
On failure, sys_execve() does not clobber EXTRA_REGS, so we can
just return to userpsace without saving/restoring them.
On success, ELF_PLAT_INIT() in sys_execve() clears all these
registers.
On other executable formats:
- binfmt_flat.c has similar FLAT_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and everyone
else except sh) doesn't define it.
- binfmt_elf_fdpic.c has ELF_FDPIC_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and most
others) doesn't define it.
- There are no such hooks in binfmt_aout.c et al. We inherit
EXTRA_REGS from the prior executable.
This inconsistency was not intended.
This change removes SAVE/RESTORE_EXTRA_REGS in stub_execve,
removes register clearing in ELF_PLAT_INIT(),
and instead simply clears them on success in stub_execve.
Run-tested.
