Subject: [PATCH] net: nixge: fix -Wvoid-pointer-to-enum-cast warning

When building with clang 18 I see the following warning:
|       drivers/net/ethernet/ni/nixge.c:1273:12: warning: cast to smaller integer
|               type 'enum nixge_version' from 'const void *' [-Wvoid-pointer-to-enum-cast]
|        1273 |         version = (enum nixge_version)of_id->data;

This is due to the fact that `of_id->data` is a void* while `enum nixge_version`
has the size of an int. This leads to truncation and possible data loss.

Note: There is likely no data loss occurring here since `enum nixge_version`
has only a few fields which aren't nearly large enough to cause data
loss. However, this patch still works towards the goal of enabling this
warning for more builds by reducing noise.
