x86/kprobes: Fix JNG/JNLE emulation

Browse source

When kprobes emulates JNG/JNLE instructions on x86 it uses the wrong
condition. For JNG (opcode: 0F 8E), according to Intel SDM, the jump is
performed if (ZF == 1 or SF != OF). However the kernel emulation
currently uses 'and' instead of 'or'.

As a result, setting a kprobe on JNG/JNLE might cause the kernel to
behave incorrectly whenever the kprobe is hit.

Fix by changing the 'and' to 'or'.
