Unfortunately, we can't due to the C specification. Take a look at
all the other users of devm_add_action_or_reset() and they all have
pretty much the same stupid thing. This is a pretty great grep, for
instance:
git grep devm_add_action_or_reset.*clk_disable_unprepare
I did a quick Google search and the top hit was a stack overflow that
explained it:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/559581/casting-a-function-pointer-to-another-type
The net-net is that the answer there says:

I suppose I could try to add devm variants of these functions
somewhere more general if you think it's a good idea, though there it
seems like there's not a huge need since these two greps are zero:
git grep devm_add_action_or_reset.*runtime_disable
git grep devm_add_action_or_reset.*pm_clk_destroy
...actually, do we even need the runtime_disable in the error path?
When the dev goes away does it matter if you left pm_runtime enabled
on it?
