Subject: [PATCH 4.1 34/95] MIPS: KVM: Fix CACHE immediate offset sign extension

4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Hogan <james.hogan@...tec.com>

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.

Fixes: e685c689f3a8 ("KVM/MIPS32: Privileged instruction/target branch emulation.")
