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.

Might be wise to clean up a few other ones in that file? Or not. Up to

Anyway, is casting here needed at all? Is not just plain -(y / 4) enough?

Please move elantech change into separate commit/patch. As it has
nothing with alps driver. It is completely different hardware.

Please use s8 instead of signed char. Also, could you please tell me if
"msizanoen" is your real name? It is required in the DCO. Apologies if
it really is.

Thanks.
