[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] lib: fix wrong cast

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] lib: fix wrong cast

[Zhiyong Yang]

The wrong casts don't cause actual error, but they should conform to C
standard.

Fixes: c261d1431bd8 ("security: introduce security API and framework")
Fixes: b3bbd9e5f265 ("cryptodev: support device independent sessions")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
Cc: declan.doherty@intel.com
