From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

Drop cast on the result of kmalloc and similar functions.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>

type T;

- (T *)
  (\(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\|
   kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\)(...))
// </smpl>
