[Xen-devel] [v2 04/16] xen/arm: Extend copy_to_guest to support zeroing guest VA and use it

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The function copy_to_guest can easily be extended to support zeroing
guest VA. To avoid using a new bit, it is considered that a NULL buffer
(i.e buf == NULL) means the guest memory will be zeroed.

Lastly, reimplement raw_clear_guest using copy_to_guest.
