[v5 02/20] x86/mpx: Do not use SIB index if index points to R/ESP

[Ricardo Neri]

Section 2.2.1.2 of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer's Manual volume 2A states that when memory addressing is used
(i.e., mod part of ModR/M is not 3), a SIB byte is used and the index of
the SIB byte points to the R/ESP (i.e., index = 4), the index should not be
used in the computation of the memory address.

In these cases the address is simply the value present in the register
pointed by the base part of the SIB byte plus the displacement byte.

An example of such instruction could be

    insn -0x80(%rsp)

This is represented as:

     [opcode] 4c 23 80

      ModR/M=0x4c: mod: 0x1, reg: 0x1: r/m: 0x4(R/ESP)
      SIB=0x23: sc: 0, index: 0x100(R/ESP), base: 0x11(R/EBX):
      Displacement -0x80

The correct address is (base) + displacement; no index is used.

We can achieve the desired effect of not using the index by making
get_reg_offset return -EDOM in this particular case. This value indicates
callers that they should not use the index to calculate the address.
EINVAL continues to indicate that an error when decoding the SIB byte.

Care is taken to allow R12 to be used as index, which is a valid scenario.
