bios, font: zero input registers to get fontsyslinux-6.01-pre4
Users are reporting font issues under VirtualBox. Try this as a speculative fix since the old 5.x behaviour was to pass in a partially zero'd register set. Incidentally, the input regs are also used for output, so at least we now avoid potentially constructing a pointer to the font buffer using garbage register values. Cc: H.
