Hi Jordy,

Thanks for the patch, much appreciated. Sadly, as Pawan has already
pointed out, array_index_mask_nospec actually changes the behaviour of
this function, such that 'arg' would no longer be an array index.

In addition, it seems to have triggered the kernel test robot with an
alpha build error.

Regards,
Phil
