Building with -Wextra shows lots of warnings in the bpf
code such as
kernel/bpf/verifier.c: In function ‘jit_subprogs’:
include/linux/filter.h:345:4: warning: cast between incompatible function types
from ‘unsigned int (*)(const void *, const struct bpf_insn *)’ to ‘u64 (*)(u64,
u64, u64, u64, u64)’ {aka ‘long long unsigned int (*)(long long unsigned
int, long long unsigned int, long long unsigned int, long long unsigned int,
long long unsigned int)’} [-Wcast-function-type]
345 | ((u64 (*)(u64, u64, u64, u64, u64))(x))
| ^
kernel/bpf/verifier.c:10706:16: note: in expansion of macro ‘BPF_CAST_CALL’
10706 | insn->imm = BPF_CAST_CALL(func[subprog]->bpf_func) -
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
This appears to be intentional, so change the cast in a way that
suppresses the warning.
