[PATCH 5.10 060/103] treewide: Change list_sort to use const pointers

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 27 2021 - 13:17:41 EST

From: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4f0f586bf0c898233d8f316f471a21db2abd522d ]

list_sort() internally casts the comparison function passed to it
to a different type with constant struct list_head pointers, and
uses this pointer to call the functions, which trips indirect call
Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) checking.

Instead of removing the consts, this change defines the
list_cmp_func_t type and changes the comparison function types of
all list_sort() callers to use const pointers, thus avoiding type
mismatches.
