networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers
It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.
Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:
@@
expression SKB, LEN;
typedef u8;
identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
@@
- *(fn(SKB, LEN))
+ *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)
@@
expression E, SKB, LEN;
identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
type T;
@@
- E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
+ E = fn(SKB, LEN)
@@
expression SKB, LEN;
identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
@@
- fn(SKB, LEN)[0]
+ *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)
Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).
