[PATCH] scsi: hpsa: remove unneeded void pointer cast

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It's not necessary to cast the result of kmalloc, since void pointers are
promoted to any other type. This also fixes following coccinelle warning:

casting value returned by memory allocation function to (BIG_IOCTL_Command_struct *) is useless.
