commit 754ff5060daf5a1cf4474eff9b4edeb6c17ef7ab upstream.
The AlpsPS/2 code previously relied on the assumption that `char` is a
signed type, which was true on x86 platforms (the only place where this
driver is used) before kernel 6.2. However, on 6.2 and later, this
assumption is broken due to the introduction of -funsigned-char as a new
global compiler flag.
Fix this by explicitly specifying the signedness of `char` when sign
extending the values received from the device.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
