[PATCH 24/30] staging: comedi: usbdux: simplify initializing the ao urb transfer_buffer

[H Hartley Sweeten]

Remove the ugly casting of datap to the ao urb->transfer_buffer. The format
of the data in the buffer is simply.

  [0] = # of channels to update (s->async->cmd.chanlist.len)
  [1] = lsb of value for 1st channel to update
  [2] = msb of value for 1st channel to update
  [3] = 1st channel to update (depvriv->dac_commands[0])

If more than 1 channel is to be updated they are simply added to the buffer:

  [4] = lsb of value for 2st channel to update
  [5] = msb of value for 2st channel to update
  [6] = 1st channel to update (depvriv->dac_commands[1])

etc.
