These were done to silence GCC warnings and fix potential bugs where
they would never be equal when the enumeration wasn't a 32-bit type.
For example, common/pinmap_common.c used to contain this code:
if (pin == (uint32_t)NC)
I switched it to:
if (pin == (PinName)NC)
I wonder why this casting to uint32_t was done in the first place?
Maybe another supported compiler requires it?
