Subject: [PATCH] cryptodev: fix session pointer cast

[ upstream commit 513942f07c8e6d55fe109732b68d79056f4e885c ]

The wrong casts don't cause actual error, but they should conform to C
standard.

Fixes: c261d1431bd8 ("security: introduce security API and framework")
Fixes: b3bbd9e5f265 ("cryptodev: support device independent sessions")
