3.16.7-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Christoffer Dall <christoffer.dall at linaro.org>

commit 0fea6d7628ed6e25a9ee1b67edf7c859718d39e8 upstream.

The sgi values calculated in read_set_clear_sgi_pend_reg() and
write_set_clear_sgi_pend_reg() were horribly incorrectly multiplied by 4
with catastrophic results in that subfunctions ended up overwriting
memory not allocated for the expected purpose.

This showed up as bugs in kfree() and the kernel complaining a lot of
you turn on memory debugging.

This addresses: http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=141164910007868&w=2
