Subject: [PATCH 2.6.20-rc3] UCC Ether driver: kmalloc casting cleanups

[Please inform me if you are not the maintaner cause I'm not sure:)]

Hi,
A kmalloc casting cleanup patch.

I wasn't able to compile the file drivers/net/ucc_geth.c cause of
some not found headers (asm/of_platform.h, asm/qe.h, and others )
