The field offset argument type inside ice driver is of "int" type, but
when parsing and storing the value from a devarg, a uint8_t type is
used, leading to 3 bytes being potentially uninitialized. Fix this by
storing to an int type instead.

Note: this fix is superceded by the kvargs numeric args patchset [1].
However, that patchset relies on new kvargs features unlikely to be
backported, so this standalone fix is useful for backporting or if the
whole other set doesn't make the 26.11 release.
