usb: avoid redundant cast of kmalloc() return value in OTi-6858 driver

From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Thu Aug 23 2007 - 20:35:14 EST



In drivers/usb/serial/oti6858.c::pl2303_buf_alloc() the return value
of kmalloc() is being cast to "struct pl2303_buf *", but that need
not be done here since kmalloc() returns "void *".
