[PATCH] mediatek: mt7601u: fix clang -Wformat warning

[Justin Stitt]

When building with Clang we encounter this warning:
| drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt7601u/debugfs.c:92:6: error: format
| specifies type 'unsigned char' but the argument has type 'int'
| [-Werror,-Wformat] dev->ee->reg.start + dev->ee->reg.num - 1);

The format specifier used is `%hhu` which describes a u8. Both
`dev->ee->reg.start` and `.num` are u8 as well. However, the expression
as a whole is promoted to an int as you cannot get smaller-than-int from
addition. Therefore, to fix the warning, use the promoted-to-type's
format specifier -- in this case `%d`.

example:
```
uint8_t a = 4, b = 7;
int size = sizeof(a + b - 1);
printf("%d\n", size);
// output: 4
```

See more:
(https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/INT02-C.+Understand+integer+conversion+rules)
"Integer types smaller than int are promoted when an operation is
performed on them. If all values of the original type can be represented
as an int, the value of the smaller type is converted to an int;
otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned int."

Note: This patch silences the -Wformat warning for this file (which is
the goal) but in reality all instances of `%hh[dux]` should be converted
to `%[dux]` for this file and probably every file. That's a bit larger
scope than the goal of enabling -Wformat for Clang builds, though.

I think whenever a sizeof(unsigned type) that is less than sizeof(int) is
emitted with vsprintf, the preferred format specifier should be %u not %d.

And this is not a promotion of an argument to int via varargs.
The arithmetic did the promotion.

I suggest s/%hh/%/ for all the uses here, not just this one.

checkpatch could do this somewhat automatically.
Of course any changes it suggests need human review.

I believe the standard recommends using the promoted-to-type's format
specifier, in this case integer. I agree, though, that it is quite
bizarre to represent unsigned types with signed types. I'd be
interested in hearing more opinions on the matter.

Right, I noted in my patch message that the type promotion was due to addition.

I also contemplated this change but I think it might be a bit out of
scope for https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/378  -- What
do you think?
It could be argued that every single instance of %hh[dux] should be
replaced with %[dux].

I believe the standard recommends using the promoted-to-type's format
specifier, in this case integer. I agree, though, that it is quite
bizarre to represent unsigned types with signed types. I'd be
interested in hearing more opinions on the matter.

Right, I noted in my patch message that the type promotion was due to addition.

I also contemplated this change but I think it might be a bit out of
scope for https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/378  -- What
do you think?
It could be argued that every single instance of %hh[dux] should be
replaced with %[dux].

All the vsprintf ones, but not the scanf ones.
