Add a Coccinelle file to use the ERR_CAST function
Before the release 2.6.25, one had to use ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(...)) to
convert the pointer type of an error. Since then, the function
ERR_CAST has been available for that purpose.

This semantic patch replaces a pair of calls to kmalloc and memset
by a single call to kzalloc.
It only looks for simple cases to avoid false positives.

The purpose of this semantic patch is to remove
useless casts, as mentioned in the Linux documentation.
See Chapter 14 in Documentation/CodingStyle for more information.
