Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qobject: Use qobject_to() instead of type cast
To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org
Cc: marcandre.lureau@redhat.com, eblake@redhat.com

The proper way to convert from (abstract) QObject to a (concrete)
subtype is qobject_to().  Look for offenders that type cast instead:

    $ git-grep '(Q[A-Z][a-z]* \*)'
    hmp.c:    qmp_device_add((QDict *)qdict, NULL, &err);
    include/qapi/qmp/qobject.h:        return (QObject *)obj;
    qobject/qobject.c:static void (*qdestroy[QTYPE__MAX])(QObject *) = {
    tests/check-qdict.c:    dst = (QDict *)qdict_crumple(src, &error_abort);

The first two cast away const, the third isn't a type cast.  Fix the
fourth.
