The index to access the threads ptrace_bps is controlled by userspace
via syscall: sys_ptrace(), hence, hence leading to a potential
exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.
The n can be controlled from:
ptrace -> arch_ptrace -> ptrace_get_debugreg.
Fix this by sanitizing n before using it to index thread->ptrace_bps.

x86/ptrace: Fix possible spectre-v1 in ptrace_get_debugreg()
The index to access the threads ptrace_bps is controlled by userspace via
syscall: sys_ptrace(), hence leading to a potential exploitation of the
Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.
The index can be controlled from:
ptrace -> arch_ptrace -> ptrace_get_debugreg.
Fix this by sanitizing the user supplied index before using it access
thread->ptrace_bps.
