Description

Since all bits of oneshot_layer_data are used for data encoding, the variable must not be signed. int8_t also breaks get_oneshot_layer() on newlib, because bit shifting on signed integers is implementation defined, so right-shift is filled up with 1s. The only reason this might work elsewhere are implementations filling up with 0.
