void* pointer arithmetic is a GCC extentension
which could not be available in other build tools
(e.g. C++). This changes removes this assumption.

We had the question on a previous "make this C++
compatible" patch of "how much of this stuff is there?".

https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/ZnqPpqfBxlk9tEdX@redhat.com/

Please can you give us an idea of how much of this stuff
there is that you're planning to send out and what its
scope is, rather than just sending one "well this looks
small on its own" patch a week?

thanks

Hi Peter, thank you for looking into this.

Unfortunately, we don't know yet (we are still upgrading to QEMU8).

If this is a burden for QEMU, we can keep the changes on our end
and send them once we have a bigger picture (e.g. when upgrading
to QEMU9).

Regards,
Roman.
