syscalls/x86: Extend register clearing on syscall entry to lower registers

Browse source 
To reduce the chance that random user space content leaks down the call
chain in registers, also clear lower registers on syscall entry:

For 64-bit syscalls, extend the register clearing in PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS
to %dx and %cx. This should not hurt at all, also on the other callers
of that macro. We do not need to clear %rdi and %rsi for syscall entry,
as those registers are used to pass the parameters to do_syscall_64().

For the 32-bit compat syscalls, do_int80_syscall_32() and
do_fast_syscall_32() each only take one parameter. Therefore, extend the
register clearing to %dx, %cx, and %si in entry_SYSCALL_compat and
entry_INT80_compat.
