IB/core: Add mitigation for Spectre V1

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1841652
[ Upstream commit 61f259821dd3306e49b7d42a3f90fb5a4ff3351b ]

Some processors may mispredict an array bounds check and
speculatively access memory that they should not. With
a user supplied array index we like to play things safe
by masking the value with the array size before it is
used as an index.
