[PATCH] USB: gadget: dummy_hcd: switch char * to u8 *

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

The function handle_control_request() casts the urb buffer to a char *,
and then treats it like a unsigned char buffer when assigning data to
it.  On some architectures, "char" is really signed, so let's just
properly set this pointer to a u8 to take away any potential problems as
that's what is really wanted here.
