Commit 57844631 "save APIC assist vector" added an extra field to the
viridian vcpu context save record. This field was only a uint8_t and
so an extra __pad field was also added to pad up to the next 64-bit
boundary.

This patch makes sure that __pad field is zeroed on save and checked
for zero on restore. This prevents a potential leak of information
from the stack and a compatibility check against future use of the
space occupied by the __pad field.

This patch also adds a memset to make sure that the viridian domain
context is fully zeroed. This is not strictly necessary but helps
make the code more robust if fields are added to that struct in
future.

v3:
 - make zero_page accessible outside mm.c

v2:
 - drop is_zero() helper an use memcmp against zero_page instead.
 - add memset to viridian_save_domain_ctxt() to reduce potential
   for information leakage in future.

Mind explaining why simply dropping the "static" doesn't do what we
want?

That's what I did first. I got:

mm.c:592:56: error: conflicting types for âzero_pageâ
 static const char __section(".bss.page_aligned.const") zero_page[PAGE_SIZE];
                                                        ^

Obviously this can't work: You meant

extern const char zero_page[];

Yes, I guess I did.
