2.6.24-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.
------------------
From: Christoph Lameter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
patch 5bb983b0cce9b7b281af15730f7019116dd42568 in mainline.
gcc 4.2 spits out an annoying warning if one casts a const void *
pointer to a void * pointer. No warning is generated if the
conversion is done through an assignment.
