[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v9 12/37] qapi: Don't cast Enum* to int*

C compilers are allowed to represent enums as a smaller type than int, if all enum values fit in the smaller type. There are even compiler flags that force the use of this smaller representation, and using them changes the ABI of a binary. Therefore, our generated code for visit_type_ENUM() (for a
