Accidently we see pcid test failed as INVPCID_DESC[127:64] is
uninitialized before execute invpcid.

According to Intel spec: "#GP If INVPCID_TYPE is 0 and the linear
address in INVPCID_DESC[127:64] is not canonical."

By zeroing the whole invpcid_desc structure, ensure the address
canonical and reserved bit zero in desc.

By this chance change invpcid_desc to be 128bit in size no matter
in 64bit or 32bit mode to match the description in spec, even
though this test case is 64bit only.
