[ Upstream commit 20dc66f2d76b4a410df14e4675e373b718babc34 ]

This patch fixes the smatch warning, "nvmet_ns_ana_grpid_store() warn:
potential spectre issue 'nvmet_ana_group_enabled' [w] (local cap)"
Prevent the contents of kernel memory from being leaked to  user space
via speculative execution by using array_index_nospec.
