Clang's Control Flow Integrity (CFI) is a security mechanism that can help
prevent JOP chains, deployed extensively in downstream kernels used in
Android.
Its deployment is hindered by mismatches in function signatures. For this
case, we make callbacks match their intended function signature, and cast
parameters within them rather than casting the callback when passed as a
parameter.
When running `mount -t ntfs ...` we observe the following trace:
