[PATCH] serial: atmel: Fix Spectre v1 vulnerability reported by smatch
From: Hari Prasath Gujulan Elango
Date: Tue Aug 22 2023 - 07:13:40 EST
smatch reports the below spectre variant 1 vulnerability.
drivers/tty/serial/atmel_serial.c:2675 atmel_console_setup() warn: potential spectre issue 'atmel_ports' [r] (local cap)
Fix the same by using the array_index_nospec() to mitigate this
potential vulnerability especially because the console index is
controlled by user-space.
