Subject: [PATCH 8/8] arm64: entry: use stackleak_erase_on_task_stack()

On arm64 we always call stackleak_erase() on a task stack, and never
call it on another stack. We can avoid some redundant work by using
stackleak_erase_on_task_stack(), telling the stackleak code that it's
being called on a task stack.
