    xen/arm: domain: Zero the per-vCPU cpu_info
    
    A stack is allocated per vCPU to be used by Xen. The allocation is done
    with alloc_xenheap_pages that does not zero the memory returned. However
    the top of the stack is containing information that will be used to
    store the initial state of the vCPU (see struct cpu_info). Some of the
    fields may not be initialized and will lead to use/leak bits of previous
    memory in some cases on the first run of vCPU (AFAICT this only happen on
    vCPU0 for Dom0).
    
    This is part of XSA-263.
