This attack scenario relies on speculative execution. Practically, one
could train the branch predictors involved to speculatively execute
this path even if the adversary-supplied MSR number does not fall into
the legitimate range. The adversary-supplied MSR number however is
going to be used when -speculatively- computing the index of the array
thus allowing an attacker to load normally illegitimate memory values
in the L1 cache.
