tty/isicom: fix big-endian compile warning

Building an arm allmodconfig kernel triggers a lengthy but harmless
warning in the isicom driver:

drvers/tty/isicom.c: In function 'isicom_send_break':
uapi/linux/swab.h:13:15: warning: integer overflow in expression [-Woverflow]
  (((__u16)(x) & (__u16)0x00ffU) << 8) |   \
               ^

      cpu_to_le16(v),__io(p)); })
      ^
drivers/tty/isicom.c:1058:2: note: in expansion of macro 'outw'
  outw((length & 0xff00), base);
  ^

Apparently, the problem is related to the fact that the value 0xff00,
when used as a 16-bit number, is negative and passed into bitwise
operands of the generic byte swapping code.

Marking the input argument as unsigned in both technically correct
and avoids the warning.
