This is a tangent, and I do not suggest to change patch 1/4 to flip
the style, but I am not sure if this is a good style, or casting it
the other way around is better from the type-checking point of view,
i.e.

    static int cmp_fn(const void *a_, const void *b_, const void *keydata)
    {
	struct patch_id *a = a_;
        struct patch_id *b = b_;
	return hashcmp(a->patch_id, b->patch_id);
    }

    ...
    	hashmap_init(..., cmp_fn, ...);
    ...

I see many existing calls to hashmap_init() follow this pattern, so
as I said, patch 1/4 is fine as-is.

Thanks.
