[2.6.24 PATCH 13/25] dm io:ctl remove vmalloc void cast

From: Alasdair G Kergon

From: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@xxxxxxxxx>

In drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c::copy_params() there's a call to vmalloc()
where we currently cast the return value, but that's pretty pointless
given that vmalloc() returns "void *".
