sysfs: remove signedness from sysfs_get_dirent
sysfs_get_dirent is usually invoked with a string literal, which
have the type char[]. While the toplevel Makefile
disables -Wpointer-sign, other Makefiles like
arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile
redefine KBUILD_CFLAGS. Fixes the warning:

In file included from ./include/linux/kobject.h:21:
./include/linux/sysfs.h:517:37: warning: passing 'const unsigned char *'
to parameter of
type 'const char *' converts between pointers to integer types
with different sign
[-Wpointer-sign]
return kernfs_find_and_get(parent, name);
^~~~
./include/linux/kernfs.h:462:57: note: passing argument to parameter
'name' here
kernfs_find_and_get(struct kernfs_node *kn, const char *name)
