[PATCH] compressdev: fix size of socket ID in device data struct

[PATCH] compressdev: fix size of socket ID in device data struct

[Raja Zidane]

Socket ID is used and interpreted as integer, one of the possible
values for socket id is -1 (SOCKET_ID_ANY).
here socket_id is defined as unsigned 8 bit integer, so when putting
-1, it is interpreted as 255, which causes allocation errors when
trying to allocate from socket_id (255).

change socket_id from unsigned 8 bit integer to integer.
