The code patching code has always been a bit confused about whether
it's best to use void *, unsigned int *, char *, etc. to point to
instructions. In fact in the feature fixups tests we use both unsigned
int[] and u8[] in different places.
Unfortunately the tests that use unsigned int[] calculate the size of
the code blocks using subtraction of those unsigned int pointers, and
then pass the result to memcmp(). This means we're only comparing 1/4
of the bytes we need to, because we need to multiply by
sizeof(unsigned int) to get the number of *bytes*.
The result is that the tests do all the patching and then only compare
some of the resulting code, so patching bugs that only effect that
last 3/4 of the code could slip through undetected. It turns out that
hasn't been happening, although one test had a bad expected case (see
previous commit).
Fix it for now by multiplying the size by 4 in the affected functions.
