3.16.48-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9a499db0325b8a8e2368f21fef66705b120f38ba upstream. Casting spi_driver pointers to "void *" when calling spi_{,un}register_driver() bypasses all type checking. Remove the superfluous casts to fix this.
