Subject[PATCH] x86/kprobes: Fix 1 byte conditional jump target
Date
From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Commit 3bc753c06dd0 ("kbuild: treat char as always unsigned") broke
kprobes. Setting a probe-point on 1 byte conditional jump can cause the
kernel to crash, as the branch target is not sign extended.

Fix by using s8 instead of char and use immediate.value instead of
immediate.bytes for consistency.
