    x86/vrtc: fix race in CMOS index checking
    
    Do the checking for a valid CMOS index while holding the spinlock,
    otherwise the value could be changed by the guest after having been
    checked.
    
    This is XSA-503 / CVE-2026-62430.
    
    Fixes: 34bef0e6d5f4 ("hvm: Add locking to platform timers.")

    (cherry picked from commit 52350da92619a77472ebb87f20f6a1fea49eebfd)
