The function guarantees type checking of arguments and return value.
Result of rtw_netdev_priv macro can be assigned to pointer
with incompatible type without warning. The function allow compiler
to perform this check.

Changes in v2:
- add blank line after function definition;
- improve commit message.

To be similar to existing uses, this variable name should be
netdev not dev. There are also unnecessary parentheses.

Better to use netdev like this one.

static inline struct adapter *rtw_netdev_priv(struct net_device *netdev)
{
return ((struct rtw_netdev_priv_indicator *)netdev_priv(netdev))->priv;
