Subject: xen/x86: Zero out .bss for PV guests
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=04b6b4a56884327c1648;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

xen/x86: Zero out .bss for PV guests

ELF spec is unclear about whether .bss must me cleared by the loader.
Currently the domain builder does it when loading the guest but because
it is not (or rather may not be) guaranteed we should zero it out
explicitly.
