From: Marios Pomonis <pomonis@google.com>

commit 670564559ca35b439c8d8861fc399451ddf95137 upstream.

This fixes a Spectre-v1/L1TF vulnerability in ioapic_write_indirect().
This function contains index computations based on the
(attacker-controlled) IOREGSEL register.

This patch depends on patch
"KVM: x86: Protect ioapic_read_indirect() from Spectre-v1/L1TF attacks".

Fixes: 70f93dae32ac ("KVM: Use temporary variable to shorten lines.")
