[PATCH] vboxsf: fix old signature detection

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The constant-out-of-range check in clang found an actual bug in
vboxsf, which leads to the detection of old mount signatures always
failing:

fs/vboxsf/super.c:394:21: error: result of comparison of constant -3 with expression of type 'unsigned char' is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
                       options[3] == VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE_BYTE_3) {
                       ~~~~~~~~~~ ^  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fs/vboxsf/super.c:393:21: error: result of comparison of constant -2 with expression of type 'unsigned char' is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
                       options[2] == VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE_BYTE_2 &&
                       ~~~~~~~~~~ ^  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fs/vboxsf/super.c:392:21: error: result of comparison of constant -1 with expression of type 'unsigned char' is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
                       options[1] == VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE_BYTE_1 &&
                       ~~~~~~~~~~ ^  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The problem is that the pointer is of type 'unsigned char' but the
constant is a 'char'. My first idea was to change the type of the
pointer to 'char *', but I noticed that this was the original code
and it got changed after 'smatch' complained about this.

I don't know if there is a bug in smatch here, but it sounds to me
that clang's warning is correct. Forcing the constants to an unsigned
type should make the code behave consistently and avoid the warning
on both.
