URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/294311

Log:
  Clear whole XMM register file instead of only XMM0.  Also clear x87
  registers.  This brings amd64 on par with i386, providing consistent
  initial FPU state.

  Note that we do not clear any extended state, at least because kernel
  does not understand extended state structure and consequences of zero
  overwrite after fninit()/fpusave().
