[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.0 48/77] net: ethernet: litex: Fix return type of liteeth_start_xmit
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Oct 09 2022 - 18:17:15 EST
From: Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 40662333dd7c64664247a6138bc33f3974e3a331 ]
The ndo_start_xmit field in net_device_ops is expected to be of type
netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev).
The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying
function definition does not match the function hook definition.
The return type of liteeth_start_xmit should be changed from int to
netdev_tx_t.
