ftrace: let ftrace_enable_sysctl take a kernel pointer buffer
Commit 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler") changed ctl_table.proc_handler to take a kernel pointer. Adjust the signature of ftrace_enable_sysctl to match ctl_table.proc_handler which fixes the following sparse warning: kernel/trace/ftrace.c:7544:43: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces) kernel/trace/ftrace.c:7544:43: expected void * kernel/trace/ftrace.c:7544:43: got void [noderef] __user *buffer Fixes: 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler") Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200907093207.13540-1-tklauser@distanz.ch Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
