arm64: compat: Ensure upper 32 bits of x0 are zero on syscall return
Although we zero the upper bits of x0 on entry to the kernel from an AArch32 task, we do not clear them on the exception return path and can therefore expose 64-bit sign extended syscall return values to userspace via interfaces such as the 'perf_regs' ABI, which deal exclusively with 64-bit registers. Explicitly clear the upper 32 bits of x0 on return from a compat system call.
