networking: make skb_pull & friends 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_pull,
__skb_pull,
skb_pull_inline,
__pskb_pull_tail,
__pskb_pull,
pskb_pull
};
@@
- *(fn(SKB, LEN))
+ *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)
@@
expression E, SKB, LEN;
identifier fn = {
skb_pull,
__skb_pull,
skb_pull_inline,
__pskb_pull_tail,
__pskb_pull,
pskb_pull
};
type T;

- E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
+ E = fn(SKB, LEN)
