When built with Control Flow Integrity, function prototypes between
caller and function declaration must match. These mismatches are visible
at compile time with the new -Wcast-function-type-strict in Clang[1].
Fix a total of 73 warnings like these:
drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/wext.c:1379:27: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_param *, char *)' to 'iw_handler' (aka 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict]
IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWPOWER, (iw_handler)orinoco_ioctl_getpower),
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../net/wireless/wext-compat.c:1607:33: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_point *, char *)' to 'iw_handler' (aka 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict]
[IW_IOCTL_IDX(SIOCSIWGENIE)] = (iw_handler) cfg80211_wext_siwgenie,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/wext.c:1390:27: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'const iw_handler' (aka 'int (*const)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_param *, char *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types]
IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWRETRY, cfg80211_wext_giwretry),
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The cfg80211 Wireless Extension handler callbacks (iw_handler) use a
union for the data argument. Actually use the union and perform explicit
member selection in the function body instead of having a function
prototype mismatch. There are no resulting binary differences
before/after changes.
These changes were made partly manually and partly with the help of
Coccinelle.

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.
