When running a kernel with Clang's Control Flow Integrity implemented,
there is a violation that happens when accessing
/sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile:
$ cat /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile

When /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile is read, sysfs_kf_seq_show is called,
which in turn calls kobj_attr_show, which gets the ->show callback
member by calling container_of on attr (casting it to struct
kobj_attribute) then calls it.
There is a CFI violation because pm_profile_attr is of type
struct device_attribute but kobj_attr_show calls ->show expecting it
to be from struct kobj_attribute. CFI checking ensures that function
pointer types match when doing indirect calls. Fix pm_profile_attr to
be defined in terms of kobj_attribute so there is no violation or
mismatch.
Fixes: 362b646062b2 ("ACPI: Export FADT pm_profile integer value to userspace")
