fc47ff6b1b [SCSI] libfc, fcoe: Remove unnecessary cast by removing inline wrapper
Comment from "Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>"

unneeded/undesirable cast of void*.  There are probably zillions of
instances of this - there always are.

This whole inline function was unnecessary. The FCoE layer knows
that it's data structure is stored in the lport private data, it
can just access it from lport_priv().

Encapsulation protocol for running Fibre Channel over Ethernet interfaces.
Creates virtual Fibre Channel host adapters using libfc.

This layer is the LLD to the scsi-ml. It allocates the Scsi_Host, utilizes
libfc for Fibre Channel protocol processing and interacts with netdev to
send/receive Ethernet packets.
