Hi,
I was building 6.0-rc1 and this patch seem to cause some compiling
issues. The u_char was not defined in my host build environment (I
suspect because of the musl based host) which leads to the makemapdata
failing to compile. Changing the file to use "unsigned char" seems to
solve the issue.

After that I also had some weird issues of the build system trying to
write speakupmap.h into the source dir and not the output dir (the
source is read only due to the tooling I use) but this seems to have
been resolved by cleanly rebuilding the speakup dir.

A patch changing the type follows.

Nikita

Subject: [PATCH] speakup: Fix compilation in some build environments

A compilation error may occur if the host CC doesn't have u_char
defined:

  HOSTCC  drivers/accessibility/speakup/makemapdata.o
In file included from ../drivers/accessibility/speakup/makemapdata.c:15:
../drivers/accessibility/speakup/utils.h: In function 'hash_name':
../drivers/accessibility/speakup/utils.h:57:9: error: unknown type name 'u_char'; did you mean 'char'?
   57 |         u_char *pn = (u_char *)name;
      |         ^~~~~~
      |         char

Fix this by using "unsigned char" instead.
