Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.18 28/41] x86/xen: Use clear_bss() for Xen PV guests

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@...e.com>

[ Upstream commit 96e8fc5818686d4a1591bb6907e7fdb64ef29884 ]

Instead of clearing the bss area in assembly code, use the clear_bss()
function.

This requires to pass the start_info address as parameter to
xen_start_kernel() in order to avoid the xen_start_info being zeroed
again.
