Comment:

 The applied patch is stupid.
 The original code used a byte received from that mouse, then was sign
 extended it, and checked that the distance reported wasn't too big (range
 -100 to 100) to filter out invalid packets.

 Now the check allows all possible values to pass the check. This is not
 useful.
