arm64: Rewrite __arch_clear_user()
Now that we're always using STTR variants rather than abstracting two different addressing modes, the user_ldst macro here is frankly more obfuscating than helpful. Rewrite __arch_clear_user() with regular USER() annotations so that it's clearer what's going on, and take the opportunity to minimise the branchiness in the most common paths, while also allowing the exception fixup to return an accurate result. Apparently some folks examine large reads from /dev/zero closely enough to notice the loop being hot, so align it per the other critical loops (presumably around a typical instruction fetch granularity).
