nospec: Kill array_index_nospec_mask_check()
commit 1d91c1d2c80cb70e2e553845e278b87a960c04da upstream.
There are multiple problems with the dynamic sanity checking in
array_index_nospec_mask_check():
* It causes unnecessary overhead in the 32-bit case since integer sized
@index values will no longer cause the check to be compiled away like
in the 64-bit case.
* In the 32-bit case it may trigger with user controllable input when
the expectation is that should only trigger during development of new
kernel enabling.
* The macro reuses the input parameter in multiple locations which is
broken if someone passes an expression like 'index++' to
array_index_nospec().
