If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From c5c2a3b998f1ff5a586f9d37e154070b8d550d17 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2015 14:21:19 +0000 Subject: MIPS: KVM: Fix CACHE immediate offset sign extension From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c5c2a3b998f1ff5a586f9d37e154070b8d550d17 upstream. The immediate field of the CACHE instruction is signed, so ensure that it gets sign extended by casting it to an int16_t rather than just masking the low 16 bits.
