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

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.

Document that we are only using the lower 8 bits for the devstatus
variable (only 7 are currently used), as the cast from 16 to 8 is not
obvious.
