Making virt_to_pfn() a static inline taking a strongly typed (const void *) makes the contract of a passing a pointer of that type to the function explicit and exposes any misuse of the macro virt_to_pfn() acting polymorphic and accepting many types such as (void *), (unitptr_t) or (unsigned long) as arguments without warnings. For symmetry we do the same change for pfn_to_virt. Immediately define virt_to_pfn and pfn_to_virt to the static inline after the static inline since this style of defining functions is used for the generic helpers.
