Re: [PATCH 12/18] Thermal/int340x: prevent bounds-check bypass via speculative execution

Static analysis reports that 'trip' may be a user controlled value that
is used as a data dependency to read '*temp' from the 'd->aux_trips'
array. In order to avoid potential leaks of kernel memory values, block
speculative execution of the instruction stream that could issue reads
based on an invalid value of '*temp'.

Based on an original patch by Elena Reshetova.
