[PATCH 3/3] Staging: unisys: Remove useless cast on void pointer

Show all headers | View raw

void pointers do not need to be cast to other pointer types.

The semantic patch used to find this:

@r@
expression x;
void* e;
type T;
identifier f;
@@
(
  *((T *)e)
|
  ((T *)x)[...]
|
  ((T *)x)->f
|
- (T *)
  e
)
