#1592521 — [PATCH v5 0/5] Remove unnecessary cast on void pointer

This patch-series removes unnecessary cast on void pointer in various
drivers.

v5:
  -Fixed compliation warning in lustre/lustre/llite/range_lock.c
   which remain unfixed in v3.
v4:
  -change the cover-letter subject
v3:
  -Fixed compilation warning in lustre/lustre/llite/range_lock.c

Much better, thanks.

Trivia: (and it's probably not necessary to resend)

The cover letter should describe the subsystem being
changed or ideally something like "treewide" if the
series touches files throughout the kernel sources.

So this cover letter ideally would have a subject like:

Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] staging: Remove unnecessary casts of void pointer

Some of these are acting on multiple instances.

Please try to use plural and singular descriptions
where appropriate.
