[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls
Run this:
#!/bin/sh
for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
echo "De-casting $f..."
perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
done
And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.
And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
