The mode_valid field in drm_bridge_helper_funcs is expected to be of
type
enum drm_mode_status (* mode_valid) (struct drm_bridge *bridge,
struct drm_display_mode *mode);
The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying
function definition does not match the function hook definition. A new
warning in clang will catch this at compile time:
drivers/gpu/drm/xlnx/zynqmp_dp.c:1573:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_bridge *, const struct drm_display_info *, const struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_bridge *, const struct drm_display_info *, const struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.mode_valid = zynqmp_dp_bridge_mode_valid,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
The return type of zynqmp_dp_bridge_mode_valid should be changed from
int to enum drm_mode_status.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
