[PATCH v2 18/19] cw1200: prevent bounds-check bypass via speculative execution

[Dan Williams]

Static analysis reports that 'queue' may be a user controlled value that
is used as a data dependency to read 'txq_params' from the
'priv->tx_queue_params.params' array.  In order to avoid potential leaks
of kernel memory values, block speculative execution of the instruction
stream that could issue reads based on an invalid value of 'txq_params'.
In this case 'txq_params' is referenced later in the function.

Based on an original patch by Elena Reshetova.
