[PATCH bpf-next v3 2/2] libbpf: netlink: switch to void * casting
From: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com>

Netlink helpers I added in 8bbb77b7c7a2 ("libbpf: Add various netlink
helpers") used char * casts everywhere, and there were a few more that
existed from before.
Convert all of them to void * cast, as it is treated equivalently by
clang/gcc for the purposes of pointer arithmetic and to follow the
convention elsewhere in the kernel/libbpf.
