[ Upstream commit2551a1eedc] The previous implementation incorrectly assumed the original type of 'priv' was void**, leading to an unnecessary and misleading cast. Correct the cast of the 'priv' pointer in test_dev_action() to its actual type, long*, removing an unnecessary cast. As an additional benefit, this fixes an out-of-bounds CHERI fault on hardware with architectural capabilities. The original implementation tried to store a capability-sized pointer using the priv pointer. However, the priv pointer's capability only granted access to the memory region of its original long type, leading to a bounds violation since the size of a long is smaller than the size of a capability. This change ensures that the pointer usage respects the capabilities' bounds.
