[PATCH] nds32: ftrace: fix pointer comparison warning

From: Randy Dunlap
Date: Wed Oct 27 2021 - 01:56:06 EST


GCC 11.1.0 for nds32 (nds32le if it matters) complains:

../arch/nds32/kernel/ftrace.c: In function '_mcount':
../arch/nds32/kernel/ftrace.c:24:35: error: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [-Werror]
24 | if (ftrace_trace_function != ftrace_stub)
| ^~

Cast the second function (pointer) to (void *) to avoid the warning.

Fixes: a18082575c66 ("nds32/ftrace: Support static function tracer")
