[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.19 47/73] net: wwan: iosm: Fix return type of ipc_wwan_link_transmit

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

Also in: lkml, llvm, stable
Subsystem: intel wwan iosm driver, networking drivers, the rest, wwan drivers · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Loic Poulain, Sergey Ryazanov

From: Nathan Huckleberry <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 0c9441c430104dcf2cd066aae74dbeefb9f9e1bf ]

The ndo_start_xmit field in net_device_ops is expected to be of type
netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev).

The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying
function definition does not match the function hook definition.

The return type of ipc_wwan_link_transmit should be changed from int to
netdev_tx_t.
