Under speculation, CPUs may mis-predict branches in bounds checks. Thus,
memory accesses under a bounds check may be speculated even if the
bounds check fails, providing a primitive for building a side channel.

This patch adds helpers which can be used to inhibit the use of
out-of-bounds pointers under speculation.

A generic implementation is provided for compatibility, but does not
guarantee safety under speculation. Architectures are expected to
override these helpers as necessary.

Dan, I've reworked this so that nospec_ptr() can take an arch-specific barrier
sequence. I believe that for x86 you just need to implement __nospec_barrier()
as osb().

Mark.

I see:

kernel/bpf/arraymap.c: In function 'array_map_lookup_elem':
kernel/bpf/arraymap.c:124:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__nospec_barrier' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  return nospec_ptr(ptr, array->value, high);
  ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

when building using a 4.8ish gcc. Removing the above #undef avoids that
error. I don't get the build error on fedora with gcc7
