Thanks for the follow up.  This hunk and above all LGTM.

There are many call sites of ASCEBC which is defined in terms of this
function. Do they all use `char*`?  grep shows an explicit cast to
`unsigned char*` in drivers/s390/char/tape_std.c for example.

This change is less obvious. Do you still have the warning for that
this hunk fixes?
