[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 89/90] selftests/x86/syscall_nt: Clear weird flags after each test

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2020-09-18 02:24:11
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, Linus Torvalds

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit a61fa2799ef9bf6c4f54cf7295036577cececc72 ]

Clear the weird flags before logging to improve strace output --
logging results while, say, TF is set does no one any favors.
