x86: Remove unnecessary casts of void ptr returning alloc function re…

…turn 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 arch/x86.
