Subject: gdm72xx: remove unnecessary cast in gdm_wimax.c
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9ef4090385a0c35192229ca77c9de273824040b4;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

gdm72xx: remove unnecessary cast in gdm_wimax.c

This patch removes an unnecessary cast on the return value
of alloc_netdev(), since alloc_netdev() returns a pointer
to the allocated struct net_device anyway.
