That's casting one pointer type to another pointer type.

It is casting the address of some type to a 'u32 *'.
This will then be dereferenced by the called function.
So the original type better be 32 bits.

I'm also guessing that sparse was complaining about endianness?
It isn't at all clear that these casts actually fix it.
