Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] eliminate errors about unused results in block/vpc.c

[Nathan Froyd <froydnj@codesourcery.com>]

These errors come up when compiling with gcc-4.3.3 and some older headers:

/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c: In function 'vpc_create':
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:514: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:516: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:517: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:566: error: value computed is not used

Just add void casts to silence the compiler.
