4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 085331dfc6bbe3501fb936e657331ca943827600

Commit 75f139aaf896 "KVM: x86: Add memory barrier on vmcs field lookup"
added a raw 'asm("lfence");' to prevent a bounds check bypass of
'vmcs_field_to_offset_table'.

The lfence can be avoided in this path by using the array_index_nospec()
helper designed for these types of fixes.
