[PATCH 16/30] net: Avoid pointless allocation casts in BSD compression module

From: Jesper Juhl <hidden>
Date: 2007-08-24 00:10:06
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The general kernel memory allocation functions return void pointers
and there is no need to cast their return values.
