Subject: [PATCH 5.4 05/46] driver core: platform: use the correct callback type for bus_find_device

From: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@...gle.com>

commit 492c88720d36eb662f9f10c1633f7726fbb07fc4 upstream.

platform_find_device_by_driver calls bus_find_device and passes
platform_match as the callback function. Casting the function to a
mismatching type trips indirect call Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) checking.

This change adds a callback function with the correct type and instead
of casting the function, explicitly casts the second parameter to struct
device_driver* as expected by platform_match.

Fixes: 36f3313d6bff9 ("platform: Add platform_find_device_by_driver() helper")
