UPSTREAM: arm64: head.S: use memset to clear BSS
Currently we use an open-coded memzero to clear the BSS. As it is a trivial implementation, it is sub-optimal. Our optimised memset doesn't use the stack, is position-independent, and for the memzero case can use of DC ZVA to clear large blocks efficiently. In __mmap_switched the MMU is on and there are no live caller-saved registers, so we can safely call an uninstrumented memset. This patch changes __mmap_switched to use memset when clearing the BSS. We use the __pi_memset alias so as to avoid any instrumentation in all kernel configurations.
