[ Upstream commit a679120edfcf3d63f066f53afd425d51b480e533 ]

When building with clang:

  kernel/bpf/dispatcher.c:126:33: error: pointer type mismatch ('void *' and 'unsigned int (*)(const void *, const struct bpf_insn *, bpf_func_t)' (aka 'unsigned int (*)(const void *, const struct bpf_insn *, unsigned int (*)(const void *, const struct bpf_insn *))')) [-Werror,-Wpointer-type-mismatch]
          __BPF_DISPATCHER_UPDATE(d, new ?: &bpf_dispatcher_nop_func);
                                     ~~~ ^  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  ./include/linux/bpf.h:1045:54: note: expanded from macro '__BPF_DISPATCHER_UPDATE'
          __static_call_update((_d)->sc_key, (_d)->sc_tramp, (_new))
                                                              ^~~~
  1 error generated.

The warning is pointing out that the type of new ('void *') and
&bpf_dispatcher_nop_func are not compatible, which could have side
effects coming out of a conditional operator due to promotion rules.

Add the explicit cast to 'void *' to make it clear that this is
expected, as __BPF_DISPATCHER_UPDATE() expands to a call to
__static_call_update(), which expects a 'void *' as its final argument.
