arg.version 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:

drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_execbuf.c:4526 vmw_execbuf_ioctl() warn:
potential spectre issue 'copy_offset' [w]

Fix this by sanitizing arg.version before using it to index copy_offset

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].
