bcm2835_register_gate is used as a callback for the clk_register member
of bcm2835_clk_desc, which expects a struct clk_hw * return type but
bcm2835_register_gate returns a struct clk *.

This discrepancy is hidden by the fact that bcm2835_register_gate is
cast to the typedef bcm2835_clk_register by the _REGISTER macro. This
turns out to be a control flow integrity violation, which is how this
was noticed.

Change the return type of bcm2835_register_gate to be struct clk_hw *
and use clk_hw_register_gate to do so. This should be a non-functional
change as clk_register_gate calls clk_hw_register_gate anyways but this
is needed to avoid issues with further changes.

Thanks. Applied to clk-next.

Please don't base on some random linux-next commit though.

Sorry, should have just used clk-next directly instead of the HEAD of
linux-next at the time. Just hard to keep track of all of the different
maintainer trees so it is easier to just use linux-next.

I do forget to use the output of --scm from
get_maintainer.pl though, I should use that more often.

Thank you for picking it up!

Nathan
