[PATCH 09/11] vimc-debayer: fix potential Spectre variant 1

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Mon Apr 23 2018 - 13:50:23 EST


code->index can be controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

Smatch warning:
drivers/media/platform/vimc/vimc-debayer.c:182 vimc_deb_enum_mbus_code() warn: potential spectre issue 'vimc_deb_pix_map_list'

Fix this by sanitizing code->index before using it to index
vimc_deb_pix_map_list.

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].
