Fix possible unintended sign extension in unsigned MMIO loads by casting to uint16_t in the case of mmio_needed != 2. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxxx> --- Thanks to James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> for the explaination of mmio_needed (there is not really any helpful comment in the code on this) in this case (mmio_needed!=2) it should be unsigned.
