Remove unnecessary (char *) casts [mem]

Remove (char *) casts around memory functions such as memcmp(),
memcpy(), or memset() where the cast is useless.  Since these
functions don't take char * arguments anyway, these casts are at best
complicated casts to (void *), about which see commit 7f798aca1d5.
