scsi: elx: efct: Fix void-pointer-to-enum-cast warning for efc_nport_topology
[ Upstream commit 96fafe7c6523886308605d30ec92c7936abe7c2c ]
The kernel test robot flagged an warning for ".../efc_device.c:932:6:
warning: cast to smaller integer type 'enum efc_nport_topology' from 'void
*'"
For the topology events, the "arg" field is generically defined as a void *
and is used to pass different arguments. Most of the arguments are pointers
to data structures. But for the EFC_EVT_NPORT_TOPOLOGY_NOTIFY event, the
argument is an enum value, and the code is typecasting the void * to an
enum generating the warning.
Fix by converting the EFC_EVT_NPORT_TOPOLOGY_NOTIFY event to pass a pointer
to the enum, thus it's a straight-forward pointer dereference in the event
handler.
