Staging: rts_pstor: dont cast void* from kmalloc()
Casting (void *) value returned by kmalloc is useless as mentioned in Documentation/CodingStyle, Chap 14. The semantic patch that makes this output is available in scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci. More information about semantic patching is available at http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ Signed-off-by: Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
