    HID: debug: improve hid_debug_event() · 92529623

    The code in hid_debug_event() causes horrible code generation. First,
    we do a strlen() call for every byte we copy (we're doing a store to
    global memory, so gcc has no way of proving that strlen(buf) doesn't
    change). Second, since both i, list->tail and HID_DEBUG_BUFSIZE have
    signed type, the modulo computation has to take into account the
    possibility that list->tail+i is negative, so it's not just a simple
    and.
    
    Fix the former by simply not doing strlen() at all (we have to load
    buf[i] anyway, so testing it is almost free) and the latter by
    changing i to unsigned. This cuts 29% (69 bytes) of the size of the
    function.
