Hi, This series of patches removes unnecessary explicit u8 and u16 type casts. They are broken down into 7 patches as follows: Patch 1 removes u8 casts in assignment statements of u8 variables. Patch 2 removes u8 casts in u8 arguments to function calls. Patch 3 removes u8 casts in comparison expressions. Patch 4 removes u16 casts in assignment statements. Patch 5 removes the u16 cast in the u16 argument to a function call. Patch 6 removes the u16 cast because the function parameter is u32. Patch 7 removes the u16 cast from a function return statement. Justification is found in the respective changelogs. Cheers, Solomon
