Following commit caused build failures on stable-rc 5.4 and 5.10.

ext4: fix to check return value of freeze_bdev() in ext4_shutdown()
commit c4d13222afd8a64bf11bc7ec68645496ee8b54b9 upstream.

fs/ext4/ioctl.c:595:7: error: incompatible pointer to integer
conversion assigning to 'int' from 'struct super_block *'
[-Wint-conversion]
                 ret = freeze_bdev(sb->s_bdev);
                     ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.


I have seen this error too in 5.4.y build.

Just more information about this.

In 5.4.y:
struct super_block *freeze_bdev(struct block_device *bdev)
{
	...
}

In 5.15.y
int freeze_bdev(struct block_device *bdev)
{
	...
}

This changed in this commit which is in 5.11-rc1,(not in 5.4.y and 5.10.y)
