x86/fpu: Fix invalid FPU ptrace state after execve()
Robert O'Callahan reported that after an execve PTRACE_GETREGSET NT_X86_XSTATE continues to return the pre-exec register values until the exec'ed task modifies FPU state. The test code is at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1164286. What is happening is fpu__clear() does not properly clear fpstate. Fix it by doing just that.
