bpf: Replace "want address" users of BPF_CAST_CALL with BPF_CALL_IMM
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, BPF_CAST_CALL causes various warnings and is one of the last places in the kernel triggering this warning. Most places using BPF_CAST_CALL actually just want a void * to perform math on. It's not actually performing a call, so just use a different helper to get the void *, by way of the new BPF_CALL_IMM() helper, which can clean up a common copy/paste idiom as well. This change results in no object code difference. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Gustavo A. R.
