[PATCH resend 3/5] libata-scsi: fix overflow in mode page copy

[tom . ty89]

From: Tom Yan <tom.ty89@xxxxxxxxx>

ata_mselect_*() would initialize a char array for storing a copy of
the current mode page. However, if char was actually signed char,
overflow could occur.

For example, `0xff` from def_control_mpage[] would be "truncated"
to `-1`. This prevented ata_mselect_control() from working at all,
since when it did the read-only bits check, there would always be
a mismatch.
