When a task first makes use of MSA we need to ensure that the upper 64b of the vector registers are set to some value such that no information can be leaked to it from the previous task to use MSA context on the CPU. The architecture formerly specified that these bits would be cleared to 0 when a scalar FP instructions wrote to the aliased FP registers, which would have implicitly handled this as the kernel restored scalar FP context. However more recent versions of the specification now state that the value of the bits in such cases is unpredictable. Initialise them explictly to be sure, and set all the bits to 1 rather than 0 for consistency with the least significant 64b.
