From: Nick Desaulniers nick.desaulniers@gmail.com

commit dae1a432ab1fe79ae53129ededeaece35a2dc14d upstream.

Clang warns:

drivers/input/mousedev.c:653:63: error: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'signed char' changes value from 200 to -56 [-Wconstant-conversion] client->ps2[1] = 0x60; client->ps2[2] = 3; client->ps2[3] = 200; ~ ^~~ As the PS2 data is really a stream of bytes, let's switch to using u8 type for it, which silences this warning.
