Input: spaceball - fix parsing of movement data packets
commit bc7ec91718c49d938849697cfad98fcd9877cc26 upstream.
The spaceball.c module was not properly parsing the movement reports
coming from the device. The code read axis data as signed 16-bit
little-endian values starting at offset 2.
In fact, axis data in Spaceball movement reports are signed 16-bit
big-endian values starting at offset 3. This was determined first by
visually inspecting the data packets, and later verified by consulting:

If this ever worked properly, it was in the time before Git...
