[PATCH net-next] fddi: defza: add missing pointer type cast

hw_addr is a uint AKA unsigned int. dev_addr_set() takes
a u8 *.

 Hmm, that's for alignment purposes to keep accessors simple (and somewhat 
faster) as hardware ignores byte lane enables, though having had a look at 
`fza_reads' something seems fishy to me here and I think `hw_addr' should 
be `u64' rather than `uint[2]'.  I'll have to double-check alignments 
throughout `struct fza_cmd_init' too and possibly elsewhere.  Unaligned 
accesses will trap and will be emulated even in the kernel mode (we need 
that for some IP packet header processing too), but obviously performance 
will suck.

 A union would be cleaner rather than having the type punned, but let's 
keep it like you proposed for now.
