[ Upstream commit bf7b4a0e25569ce39c6749afe363aefe5723d326 ]
The binary attribute const changes recently for the sram driver were made in a way that hid the fact that we would be casting a const pointer to a non-const one. So explicitly make the cast so that it is obvious and preserve the const pointer in the sram_reserve_cmp() function.
