Subject: [PATCH] net: fixup address-space warnings in compat_mc_{get,set}sockopt()

Add __user attributes in some of the casts in this function to avoid
the following sparse warnings:

net/compat.c:592:57: warning: cast removes address space of expression
net/compat.c:592:57: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
net/compat.c:592:57:    expected struct compat_group_req [noderef] <asn:1>*gr32
net/compat.c:592:57:    got void *<noident>
net/compat.c:613:65: warning: cast removes address space of expression
net/compat.c:613:65: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
