Takashi Iwai d680a34d82 ALSA: hda: Hardening for potential Spectre v1
commit 69fa6f19b9 upstream.

As recently Smatch suggested, one place in HD-audio hwdep ioctl codes
may expand the array directly from the user-space value with
speculation:
  sound/pci/hda/hda_local.h:467 get_wcaps() warn: potential spectre issue 'codec->wcaps'

As get_wcaps() itself is a fairly frequently called inline function,
and there is only one single call with a user-space value, we replace
only the latter one to open-code locally with array_index_nospec()
hardening in this patch.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
