Fix below warning caused by smatch by using array_index_nospec()
to clamp the index within the range.
"warn: potential spectre issue 'plat_dev.sock' [r] (local cap)"
While the warning have always been bogus for these code paths because
those are not user controllable values, I suspect the warning might no
longer trigger at all. I suspect the warning is tied to kstr*() which is
no longer used.

Also, it should be hsmp_pdev but please retest if this patch can be
dropped from this series (no need to resend the entire series because of
that, just mention if this patch can be left out).
I retested with smatch and warning is no more seen. Please drop this patch. Thank you.
