When booting a kernel compiled with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG on a machine with an RX 6700 XT, there is a CFI failure in kfd_destroy_mqd_cp(): [ 12.894543] CFI failure at kfd_destroy_mqd_cp+0x2a/0x40 [amdgpu] (target: hqd_destroy_v10_3+0x0/0x260 [amdgpu]; expected type: 0x8594d794) Clang's kernel Control Flow Integrity (kCFI) makes sure that all indirect call targets have a type that exactly matches the function pointer prototype. In this case, hqd_destroy()'s third parameter, reset_type, should have a type of 'uint32_t' but every implementation of this callback has a third parameter type of 'enum kfd_preempt_type'. Update the function pointer prototype to match reality so that there is no more CFI violation.

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.
