[llvm-commits] [PATCH] fix illegal impicit cast from const void* to void*

[John Spencer]

more context:
void* DynamicLibrary::SearchForAddressOfSymbol(const char *symbolName) 
calls the macro

EXPLICIT_SYMBOL

to return a (void*) pointer to a FILE* from a named argument which is 
either stderr, stdin, or stdout.

the musl libc defines these symbols as const FILE* (which is perfectly 
legal), so the implicit cast to void* fails.

adding the explicit cast to void* to the macro fixes the issue, and 
since the function returns a (void*) that is not only perfectly fine, 
but the only right thing to do.
