vhost: Fix Spectre V1 vulnerability
[ Upstream commit ff002269a4ee9c769dbf9365acef633ebcbd6cbe ] The idx in vhost_vring_ioctl() was controlled by userspace, hence a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. Fixing this by sanitizing idx before using it to index d->vqs. Cc: Michael S.
