[PATCH 5.4 16/78] tracing: Change offset type to s32 in preempt/irq tracepoints

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit bf44f488e168368cae4139b4b33c3d0aaa11679c upstream.

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.
