ALSA: hda: Hardening for potential Spectre v1
As recently Smatch suggested, one place in HD-audio hwdep ioctl codes may expand the array directly from the user-space value with speculation: sound/pci/hda/hda_local.h:467 get_wcaps() warn: potential spectre issue 'codec->wcaps' As get_wcaps() itself is a fairly frequently called inline function, and there is only one single call with a user-space value, we replace only the latter one to open-code locally with array_index_nospec() hardening in this patch.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
