Re: Smatch check for Spectre stuff

[Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>]

Hi Dan,

awesome stuff...

So I fear that many are actually things we want to fix. Our policy was
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store.

Also, many of the reported things (for the ones I looked at) are on slow
paths and fixing them is a no brainer.

Let me go write Changelogs for the onces I pasted below.

That one looks legit.

These are legit. At first I figured they'd be of limited exploitablility
because we already mask them to 0xFF, but given its a 3 dimensional
array, the highest order term can go quite far.

Also, its a slow path. So we should probably fix this.

again, looks like we want to fix that.
