4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 3ac6d8c787b835b997eb23e43e09aa0895ef7d58 upstream.
Clear the 'extra' registers on entering the 64-bit kernel for exceptions and interrupts. The common registers are not cleared since they are likely clobbered well before they can be exploited in a speculative execution attack.
