Subject: MIPS: math-emu: <MAX|MIN>.<D|S>: Fix cases of both inputs negative

From: Aleksandar Markovic <[email protected]>

commit aabf5cf02e22ebc4e541adf835910f388b6c3e65 upstream.

Fix the value returned by <MAX|MIN>.<D|S>, if both inputs are negative normal fp numbers. The previous logic did not take into account that if both inputs have the same sign, there should be separate treatment of the cases when both inputs are negative and when both inputs are positive.

A relevant example:

MAX.S fd,fs,ft:
If fs contains -5.0, and ft contains -7.0, fd is going to contain -5.0 (without this patch, it used to contain -7.0).

Fixes a79f5f9ba508 ("MIPS: math-emu: Add support for the MIPS R6 MAX{, A} FPU instruction")
Fixes 4e9561b20e2f ("MIPS: math-emu: Add support for the MIPS R6 MIN{, A} FPU instruction")
