From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

Documentation/networking/ifenslave.c:1084: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness

>From include/linux/socket.h:
* 1003.1g requires sa_family_t and that sa_data is char.

and from SUSv3:
(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/sys/socket.h.html)

The <sys/socket.h> header shall define the sockaddr structure that includes at least the following members:

sa_family_t sa_family Address family.
char sa_data[] Socket address (variable-length data).
<end SUSv3>
