3.2.101-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dan Williams <[email protected]> commit 56c30ba7b348b90484969054d561f711ba196507 upstream. 'fd' is a user controlled value that is used as a data dependency to read from the 'fdt->fd' 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 'file *' returned from __fcheck_files.
