[PATCH V3] octeon_ep: Remove unnecessary cast

[PATCH V3] octeon_ep: Remove unnecessary cast

[Haowen Bai]

./drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeon_ep/octep_rx.c:161:18-40: WARNING:
casting value returned by memory allocation function to (struct
octep_rx_buffer *) is useless.

and we do more optimization:
1. remove casting value
2. use obvious size
3. use kvcalloc instead of vzalloc

Signed-off-by: Haowen Bai <baihaowen@meizu.com>
---
V1->V2: change vzalloc to vcalloc as suggestion.
V2->V3: use obvious size; use kvcalloc instead of vzalloc.

This looks like net-next material and net-next is closed for the next 2
weeks:

Please repost when it re-opens.

Thanks,
