Subject: [PATCH] qemu_fw_cfg: Make fw_cfg_rev_attr a proper kobj_attribute

fw_cfg_showrev() is called by an indirect call in kobj_attr_show(),
which violates clang's CFI checking because fw_cfg_showrev()'s second
parameter is 'struct attribute', whereas the ->show() member of 'struct
kobj_structure' expects the second parameter to be of type 'struct
kobj_attribute'.

$ cat /sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/rev
3

$ dmesg | grep "CFI failure"
[ 26.016832] CFI failure (target: fw_cfg_showrev+0x0/0x8):

Fix this by converting fw_cfg_rev_attr to 'struct kobj_attribute' where
this would have been caught automatically by the incompatible pointer
types compiler warning. Update fw_cfg_showrev() accordingly.

I haven't sent it to Linus yet -- I was expecting to batch more of these
and send them for v5.13. (But if the kvm folks snag it, that's good
too.)

I am going to be putting the CFI series through its paces on both arm64
and x86_64 over the next week or so on several different machines (in
fact, I am writing up a report right now) so I will probably have some
more of these as I find them.

This was just a friendly ping.

Sami has sent some patches which I reported in the early stage of
clang-cfi (x86-64) through subtree maintainers.
It's up to you Nathan or kvm folks.

Upstreamed patches means to me a RDC-ed custom patchset.
