Nathan Chancellor ab576e2f1c drm/meson: Fix return type of meson_encoder_cvbs_mode_valid() 
[ Upstream commit 6c4e4d3520 ]

With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:

  drivers/gpu/drm/meson/meson_encoder_cvbs.c:211:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_bridge *, const struct drm_display_info *, const struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_bridge *, const struct drm_display_info *, const struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
          .mode_valid = meson_encoder_cvbs_mode_valid,
                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  1 error generated.

->mode_valid() in 'struct drm_bridge_funcs' expects a return type of
'enum drm_mode_status', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of
meson_encoder_cvbs_mode_valid() to match the prototype's to resolve the
warning and CFI failure.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
