| |
drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_driver.c:510:3-7: WARNING: casting value returned by k[cmz]alloc to (char *) is useless. drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_driver.c:502:2-19: WARNING: casting value returned by k[cmz]alloc to (struct dgnc_board *) is useless.
Casting (void *) value returned by kmalloc is useless as mentioned in Documentation/CodingStyle, Chap 14.
