I had the same patch 3 originally but there was still a
warning or a cast from const to non-const pointer, so I
went with the simpler approach that I posted. 

Without that regression, your patch would be nicer, but I
think the version you sent has the same regression that
I ran into.

I also sent your patches 1 and 2 with minor differences in
whitespace. Both of these are already in linux-next, so I think
you don't have to resend anything here.

I sent a whole lot of -Wcast-function-type-strict warning fixes
to address all randconfig builds on arm64, arm and x86, all but
three are now merged. Aside from the mediatek vcodec, the only
missing ones are

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240213095631.454543-1-arnd@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240213100238.456912-1-arnd@kernel.org/

I also had one patch for s390 but none of the other architectures.
I think once Hans applies the vcodec patch, I'll resend the
last two patches together with a patch to enable the warning by
default.
