From: Alejandro Colomar <alx@nginx.com>

The casts are unnecessary, since memcmp(3)'s arguments are
'const void *', which allows implicit conversion from any pointer type.
It might have been necessary in the times of K&R C, where 'void *'
didn't exist yet, up until the early 2000s, because some old systems
still had limited or no support for ISO C89. Those systems passed away
a long time ago, and current systems, even the oldest living ones, have
support for ISO C89.

The changes, apart from the removal of the macro itself, were scripted:

$ find src/ -type f \
| grep '\.[ch]$' \
| xargs sed -i 's/ngx_memcmp/memcmp/';

The cast in this case is (almost) innocuous, because it only hides
warnings for conversions from integer to pointer such as:

nxt_memcmp(n, "foo", 3); // no warnings
memcmp(n, "foo", 3); // warning: integer to pointer conversion

which is a difficult bug to write, since it's too obvious. Such code
will probably be caught in a code review, but there's always a small
risk. Since there's no reason to keep the small risk around, when we
can just avoid it by removing the cast.

In general, it's better to avoid a cast if possible, since casts will
disable many compiler warnings regarding type safety.
