hmm, your mail went into the spam folder. Good thing I checked.

 From what I remember: The reason why these casts were added in
carl9170 was because of compiler warnings/complaints.
Current gcc compilers should be OK (given that the kernel-bot
didn't react, or went your Mail to their spam-folder as well?)
but have you checked these older versions?

(In 6.5.0 Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst states that one
should have at least gcc 5.1 - could you run with those and
see if C=2 W=1 passes?)

Regards,
Christian
