4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 06ce6e9b6d6c09d4129c6e24a1314a395d816c10 upstream.

> arch/x86/events/msr.c:178 msr_event_init() warn: potential spectre issue 'msr' (local cap)

Userspace controls @attr, sanitize cfg (attr->config) before using it
to index an array.
