Subject: [PATCH] s390/bpf: Fix backward jumps

Currently all backward jumps crash for JITed s390x eBPF programs with an illegal instruction program check and kernel panic. Because for negative values the opcode of the jump instruction is overriden by the negative branch offset an illegal instruction is generated by the JIT:

 000003ff802da378: c01100000002   lgfi    %r1,2
 000003ff802da37e: fffffff52065   unknown <-- illegal instruction
 000003ff802da384: b904002e       lgr     %r2,%r14

So fix this and mask the offset in order not to damage the opcode.
