My personal preference is on just Clear, because imho Clear All is redundant: 
clearing any textbox, list or whatever always removes all items (or 
characters, in this case), and with Clear All, I would (without context) 
assume that it clears multiple thingies. Say, textboxes.
Which is not what it does.

I find Clear to be clear enough :D
