Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: rawmidi: Fix potential Spectre v1 vulnerability
Git-commit: 2b1d9c8f87235f593826b9cf46ec10247741fff9
Patch-mainline: v5.1-rc3
References: bsc#1051510

info->stream 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:

sound/core/rawmidi.c:604 __snd_rawmidi_info_select() warn: potential spectre issue 'rmidi->streams' [r] (local cap)

Fix this by sanitizing info->stream before using it to index
rmidi->streams.

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].
