Clang generate quite a few of those warnings.

This is because pointer arithmetic on a pointer not pointing to an array
is an undefined behavior (C11 6.5.6, constraint 8). Fix it by just
casting the corresponding pointers using ACPI_CAST_PTR() and skip the
arithmetic. Also, fix a checkpatch warning together.

v2: Use ACPI_CAST_PTR() in ACPI_TO_POINTER() directly without
arithmetic.
