(Before, the allocator would always return "void *", which can be implicitly cast to any pointer type.) The returned type is "struct comedi_lrange **", but the assigned type, while technically matching, is const qualified. Since there is no general way to remove const qualifiers, switch the returned type to match the assign type. No change in allocation size results.
