This breaks the trigger-field-variable-support.tc from the ftrace test
suite at least on s390:

echo 'hist:keys=next_comm:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).wakeup_latency($wakeup_lat,next_pid,sched.sched_waking.prio,next_comm) if next_comm=="ping"'
linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/test.d/trigger/inter-event/trigger-field-variable-support.tc: line 15: echo: write error: Invalid argument

I added a debugging line into check_synth_field():

[   44.091037] field->size 16, hist_field->size 16, field->is_signed 1, hist_field->is_signed 0

Note the difference in the signed field.
