Re: [PATCH] rtc: msc313: Fix function prototype mismatch in msc313_rtc_probe()

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.

msc313_rtc_probe() was passing clk_disable_unprepare() directly, which
did not have matching prototypes for devm_add_action_or_reset()'s callback
argument. Add a wrapper and remove the cast.

This was found as a result of Clang's new -Wcast-function-type-strict
flag, which is more sensitive than the simpler -Wcast-function-type,
which only checks for type width mismatches.

Hi,

another way to fix it, is to use devm_clk_get_enabled().

It removes some LoC instead of introducing some new ones and saves a few bytes of memory.
