powerpc/64: Sanitise user registers on interrupt in pseries, POWERNV

Cause pseries and POWERNV platforms to default to zeroising all potentially
user-defined registers when entering the kernel by means of any interrupt
source, reducing user-influence of the kernel and the likelihood or
producing speculation gadgets.
