Hi,

In order to keep ahead of cases in the kernel where Control Flow Integrity
(CFI) may trip over function call casts, enabling -Wcast-function-type
is helpful. To that end, replace BPF_CAST_CALL() as it triggers warnings
with this option and is now one of the last places in the kernel in need
of fixing.

Thanks,

-Kees

  bpf: Replace "want address" users of BPF_CAST_CALL with BPF_CALL_IMM
  bpf: Replace callers of BPF_CAST_CALL with proper function typedef
Both patches look good to me. For the series:
