checkpatch: CHECK: No space is necessary after a cast

Hi Joe,

I have a problem with checkpatch. On ath10k we have this function:

static inline struct ath10k_skb_cb *ATH10K_SKB_CB(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
	BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct ath10k_skb_cb) >
		     IEEE80211_TX_INFO_DRIVER_DATA_SIZE);
	return (struct ath10k_skb_cb *)&IEEE80211_SKB_CB(skb)->driver_data;
}

And the BUILD_BUG_ON triggers this warning:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.h:85: CHECK: No space is necessary after a cast

Any advice how to handle that?
