    bpf: Avoid warning when re-casting __bpf_call_base into __bpf_call_base_args
    
    [ Upstream commit 6943c2b05bf09fd5c5729f7d7d803bf3f126cb9a ]
    
    BPF interpreter uses extra input argument, so re-casts __bpf_call_base into
    __bpf_call_base_args. Avoid compiler warning about incompatible function
    prototypes by casting to void * first.
