Fix sparse warnings and get rid of casts that hide misuse

IMHO the ioctl usage in this driver is going to be more maintenance
burden than useful. and should be removed.

ACK but netxen is in heavy flux right now, with upstream workqueue changes, changes from Amit, etc. so, it didn't apply.

Ever considered submitting via git?  :)
