Subject: [PATCH] staging: wilc1000: Remove useless cast.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.7.1 (2016-10-04)

Variable ip_addr is already declared as pointer to u8. Again explicit type
casting of ip_addr to u8, is not required. Hence this patch removes it
by using the following coccinelle script.

@@
type T;
T *ptr,p;
@@
(
- (T *)(&p)
+ &p
|
- (T *)ptr
+ ptr
|
- (T *)(ptr)
+ ptr
|
- (T)(p)
+ p
)
