8529f613b6 vfs: don't force a big memset of stat data just to clear padding fields
Admittedly this is something that the compiler should be able to just do
for us, but gcc just isn't that smart.  And trying to use a structure
initializer (which would get us the right semantics) ends up resulting
in gcc allocating stack space for _two_ 'struct stat', and then copying
one into the other.

So do it by hand - just have a per-architecture macro that initializes
the padding fields.  And if the architecture doesn't provide one, fall
back to the old behavior of just doing the whole memset() first.

1965aae3c9 x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guards
Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
