From: Thomas Meyer<thomas@xxxxxxxx>
Casting (void *) value returned by kmalloc is useless
as mentioned in Documentation/CodingStyle, Chap 14.
The semantic patch that makes this change is available
in scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci.
More information about semantic patching is available at
