Sparse reports

    net/ipv4/inet_diag.c:1511:17: sparse: sparse: Using plain integer as NULL pointer

Due to this code calling cmpxchg on a non-integer type
struct inet_diag_handler *

    return !cmpxchg((const struct inet_diag_handler**)&inet_diag_table[type],
                    NULL, h) ? 0 : -EEXIST;

While hexagon's cmpxchg assigns an integer value to a variable of this
type.

    __typeof__(*(ptr)) __oldval = 0;

Update this assignment to cast 0 to the correct type.

The original issue is easily reproduced at head with the below block,
and is absent after this change.

    make LLVM=1 ARCH=hexagon defconfig
    make C=1 LLVM=1 ARCH=hexagon net/ipv4/inet_diag.o
