Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 5/7] tracing: Change offset type to s32 in preempt/irq tracepoints

From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@...lfernandes.org>

Discussion in the below link reported that symbols in modules can appear
to be before _stext on ARM architecture, causing wrapping with the
offsets of this tracepoint. Change the offset type to s32 to fix this.
