x86/fpu: Fix invalid FPU ptrace state after execve()

Robert O'Callahan reported that after an execve PTRACE_GETREGSET
NT_X86_XSTATE continues to return the pre-exec register values
until the exec'ed task modifies FPU state.

The test code is at:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1164286.

What is happening is fpu__clear() does not properly clear fpstate.
Fix it by doing just that.
