[drivers/net: Remove casts of void *]:

.../declance.c: In function 'cp_to_buf':
.../declance.c:347: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
.../declance.c:348: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
.../declance.c: In function 'cp_from_buf':
.../declance.c:406: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
