[S390] s390: clear high-order bits of registers after sam64

Browse Source 
When the kernel is IPLed without the CLEAR option and switches
to 64-bit, the high-order half of the registers might contain
random values.  This can cause addressing exceptions and the
kernel enters an interrupt loop.

Initialize the high-order half of the general purpose registers
with zeros after switching to 64-bit mode.
