[PATCH] read: Fix overflow in grub_getline()


From: Glenn Washburn
Subject: [PATCH] read: Fix overflow in grub_getline()
Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2022 19:59:09 -0500

From: Li Gen <ligenlive@gmail.com>

Store returned value from grub_getkey() in int instead of char to
prevent throwing away the extended bits. This was a problem because,
for instance, the left arrow key press would return
(GRUB_TERM_EXTENDED | 0x4b), which would have the GRUB_TERM_EXTENDED
thrown away leaving 0x4b or 'K'. These extended keys should either
work as intended or do nothing. This change has them do nothing, instead
of inserting a key not pressed by the user.
