    drm/i915: Fix CFI violation with show_dynamic_id()
    
    [ Upstream commit 58606220a2f1407a7516c547f09a1ba7b4350a73 ]
    
    When an attribute group is created with sysfs_create_group(), the
    ->sysfs_ops() callback is set to kobj_sysfs_ops, which sets the ->show()
    callback to kobj_attr_show(). kobj_attr_show() uses container_of() to
    get the ->show() callback from the attribute it was passed, meaning the
    ->show() callback needs to be the same type as the ->show() callback in
    'struct kobj_attribute'.
    
    However, show_dynamic_id() has the type of the ->show() callback in
    'struct device_attribute', which causes a CFI violation when opening the
    'id' sysfs node under drm/card0/metrics. This happens to work because
    the layout of 'struct kobj_attribute' and 'struct device_attribute' are
    the same, so the container_of() cast happens to allow the ->show()
    callback to still work.
    
    Change the type of show_dynamic_id() to match the ->show() callback in
    'struct kobj_attributes' and update the type of sysfs_metric_id to
    match, which resolves the CFI violation.
