    mtd: remove unnecessary casts of void ptr returning alloc function return values
    
    The [vk][cmz]alloc(_node) family of functions return void pointers which
    it's completely unnecessary/pointless to cast to other pointer types since
    that happens implicitly.
    
    This patch removes such casts from drivers/mtd/
