If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: John Garry <john.garry@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fae2a63737e5973f1426bc139935a0f42e232844 ] Currently smatch warns of possible Spectre-V1 issue in ahci_led_store(): drivers/ata/libahci.c:1150 ahci_led_store() warn: potential spectre issue 'pp->em_priv' (local cap) Userspace controls @pmp from following callchain: em_message->store() ->ata_scsi_em_message_store() -->ap->ops->em_store() --->ahci_led_store() After the mask+shift @pmp is effectively an 8b value, which is used to index into an array of length 8, so sanitize the array index.
