The Kconfig symbol IPDDP_DECAP got added in v2.1.75. It has never been
used. Its entry can safely be removed.

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.

For example, this cast:

        int y;
        int *p = (int *)&amp;y;

I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts.  I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user.

@@
type T;
T *p;
@@

-       (T *)p
+       p

Unnecessary casts of void * clutter the code.

These are the remainder casts after several specific
patches to remove netdev_priv and dev_priv.

Done via coccinelle script (and a little editing):

This changes appletalk to use lock_sock instead of
lock_kernel for serialization. I tried to make sure
that we don't hold the socket lock during sleeping
functions, but I did not try to prove whether the
locks are necessary in the first place.

Compile-tested only.
