staging: wlan-ng: silence incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)

Browse Source 
Currently p80211knetdev_do_ioctl use type casting to req->data to prevent
sparse warning while calling memdup_user, instead of type casting it here,
its better to change data type for data inside p80211ioctl_req to include
__user.
