3.16.68-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <[email protected]> commit 99436f7d69045800ffd1d66912f85d37150c7e2b upstream. Correct the check for the span of the 256MB segment addressable by the J instruction according to this instruction's semantics. The calculation of the jump target is applied to the address of the delay-slot instruction that immediately follows. Adjust the check accordingly by adding 4 to `e->code' that holds the address of the J instruction itself. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.
