net: Remove casts to same type

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.

For example, this cast:

	int y;
	int *p = (int *)&y;

I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts.  I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force and __user.

type T;
T *p;

-	(T *)p
+	p
