Subject: posix-timers: Protect posix clock array access against speculation
Git-commit: 19b558db12f9f4e45a22012bae7b4783e62224da
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc7
References: bnc#1081358 CVE-2017-5715

The clockid argument of clockid_to_kclock() comes straight from user space
via various syscalls and is used as index into the posix_clocks array.

Protect it against spectre v1 array out of bounds speculation. Remove the
redundant check for !posix_clock[id] as this is another source for
speculation and does not provide any advantage over the return
posix_clock[id] path which returns NULL in that case anyway.
