No need cast (void*) to (struct hal_rx_ppdu_end_user_stats *),
(struct ath12k_rx_desc_info *) or (struct hal_tx_msdu_ext_desc *).

for both of the above IMO the better solution is to change the prototype 
to replace void *rx_tlv with struct hal_rx_ppdu_end_user_stats 
*ppdu_end_user and to remove the local variable

further, I think you can add const to that since the TLV is only read, 
not written

this better describes that the function requires a specific flavor of RX 
TLV rather than handling any RX TLV

this is ok

This function is only called from one place, and it is already passing a 
variable that is of type struct hal_tx_msdu_ext_desc *
so IMO a better solution is to change the prototype to replace void *cmd 
with struct hal_tx_msdu_ext_desc *tcl_ext_desc and remove the local variable

again this better describes that the function requires a specific 
payload rather than a generic opaque payload

as a general rule, use void * when the payload has some level of 
opaqueness and use a specific struct * when the payload must be of a 
specific type

Hi,

Sounds like a good idea, I will check other patches for this situation.
Thanks for your suggestions.
