[ Upstream commit 9d682ea6bcc76b8b2691c79add59f7d99c881635 ]

Fix the check for the mainline vboxsf code being used with the old
mount.vboxsf mount binary from the out-of-tree vboxsf version doing
a comparison between signed and unsigned data types.

This fixes the following smatch warnings:

fs/vboxsf/super.c:390 vboxsf_parse_monolithic() warn: impossible condition '(options[1] == (255)) => ((-128)-127 == 255)'
fs/vboxsf/super.c:391 vboxsf_parse_monolithic() warn: impossible condition '(options[2] == (254)) => ((-128)-127 == 254)'
fs/vboxsf/super.c:392 vboxsf_parse_monolithic() warn: impossible condition '(options[3] == (253)) => ((-128)-127 == 253)'
