wifi: atmel: Avoid clashing function prototypes
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]. Of the 1549 warnings found, 188 come from the atmel driver. For example: drivers/net/wireless/atmel/atmel.c:2518:2: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, void *, 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) atmel_config_commit, /* SIOCSIWCOMMIT */ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The atmel 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. This patch is a cleanup based on Brad Spengler/PaX Team's modifications to the atmel driver in their last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
