nospec: Move array_index_nospec() parameter checking into separate macro
 
For architectures providing their own implementation of
array_index_mask_nospec() in asm/barrier.h, attempting to use WARN_ONCE() to
complain about out-of-range parameters using WARN_ON() results in a mess
of mutually-dependent include files.

Rather than unpick the dependencies, simply have the core code in nospec.h
perform the checking for us.

README 
Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
