[PATCH] drivers: misc: sram: fix up some const issues with recent attribute changes

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

The binary attribute const changes recently for the sram driver were
made in a way that hid the fact that we would be casting a const pointer
to a non-const one.  So explicitly make the cast so that it is obvious
and preserve the const pointer in the sram_reserve_cmp() function.
