[PATCH] scsi: mptctl: fix potential Spectre v1

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

karg->hdr.port is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading
to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c:1360 mptctl_getiocinfo() warn: potential
spectre issue 'ioc->pfacts' [r]

Fix this by sanitizing karg->hdr.port before indirectly using it to index
ioc->pfacts

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].
