Replace ASM signed tests with unsigned
ge, lt, gt and le condition codes in assembly provide a signed test whereas hs, lo, hi and ls provide the unsigned counterpart. Signed tests should only be used when strictly necessary, as using them on logically unsigned values can lead to inverting the test for high enough values. All offsets, addresses and usually counters are actually unsigned values, and should be tested as such. Replace the occurrences of signed condition codes where it was unnecessary by an unsigned test as the unsigned tests allow the full range of unsigned values to be used without inverting the result with some large operands.
