Hi,
I think that the subject and patch description need to be reworked.
We can see easily enough from the code what is being done.
But why?

Please take some time before posting the next revision of this patch.
Please do run checkpatch.pl --strict --codespell
and, within reason, correct the issues it flags.
Please make sure that allmodconfig builds compile.
At least on x86_64.

It is usually not necessary to implicitly cast a pointer to (void *).
Also, while it mat address a compiler warning, it's not claear to me how
this is related to the const change that is the subject of this patch.

I don't think you need the cast to void * here either.
