Subject: [PATCH] soc: renesas: rmobile-sysc: fix -Wvoid-pointer-to-enum-cast warning

When building with clang 18 I see the following warning:
|      drivers/soc/renesas/rmobile-sysc.c:193:22: warning: cast to smaller integer
|               type 'enum pd_types' from 'const void *' [-Wvoid-pointer-to-enum-cast]
|        193 |                 add_special_pd(np, (enum pd_types)id->data);

This is due to the fact that `id->data` is a void* and `enum pd_types`
has the size of an integer. This cast from pointer-width to int-width
causes truncation and possible data loss. Instead, cast to `uintptr_t`
which has the same width as void*.

Note: It should be noted that there is likely no data loss occurring in
this case since the enum only has a few fields. The narrowing cast from
pointer to int will not lose any data.
