If there is no context switch happens after we enable V for a process,
then we return to user space with whatever left on the CPU's V registers
accessible to the process. The leaked data could belong to another
process's V-context saved from last context switch, impacting process's
confidentiality on the system.
To prevent this from happening, we clear V registers by restoring
zero'd V context after turining on V.
