In Rust 1.72.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_cast_constness` lint [1]:
Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible, `pointer::cast_mut` and `pointer::cast_const` are safer because they cannot accidentally cast the pointer to another type.
There are only 2 affected sites:
- `*mut T as *const U as *mut U` becomes `(*mut T).cast()`
- `&self as *const Self as *mut Self` becomes `core::ptr::from_ref(self).cast_mut()`.
Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change intended.

Ah, it belongs in the preceding patch. I'll fix that on the next spin.
