The mode_valid field in drm_connector_helper_funcs is expected to be of
type:
enum drm_mode_status (* mode_valid) (struct drm_connector *connector,
                                      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.

The return type of mdp4_lvds_connector_mode_valid should be changed from
int to enum drm_mode_status.

Did this patch get lost somewhere? I do not see it picked up. It is
needed to avoid a new WIP warning from clang for catching these CFI
failures:

drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/mdp4/mdp4_lvds_connector.c:89:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
         .mode_valid = mdp4_lvds_connector_mode_valid,
                       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

It will be picked into 6.1-rc and then propagate through the stable kernel updates.

Anyway:
