Alejandro Colomar 684130db5c bsearch.3: Fix intermediate type and remove unneeded casts
Casting `const void *` to `struct mi *` should result in a warning if
done implicitly.  The explicit cast was probably silencing that warning.
`const` can and should be kept.
Now, casting `const void *` to `const struct mi *` is done implicitly.

Casting `void *` to `struct child_args *` is already done implicitly.
Explicitly casting can silence warnings when mistakes are made, so it's

Alejandro Colomar 180698be28 msgop.2: Remove unneeded casts
The type `struct msgbuf *` is implicitly casted to `const void *`.
Not only that, but the explicit cast to `void *` was slightly
misleading.

Alejandro Colomar ffa50fbf01 dlopen.3: Remove unneeded cast
Casting `void *` to `double (*cosine)(double)` is already done
implicitly.
I had doubts about this one, but `gcc -Wall -Wextra` didn't complain
about it.

Alejandro Colomar 0e00826840 tsearch.3: Simplify type usage and remove unneeded casts
The type of `val` is `int **`, and it will work with tsearch()
anyway because of implicit cast from `void *`, so declaring it as an
`int **` simplifies the code.

Alejandro Colomar 209e118e30 fanotify.7: Pass array to read(2) directly instead of a pointer to it
It doesn't make any sense to pass a pointer to the array to
read(2).

It might make sense to pass a pointer to the first element of the
array, but that is already implicitly done when passing the array,
which decays to that pointer, so it's simpler to pass the array.

And anyway, the cast was unneeded, as any pointer is implicitly
cast to `void *`.
