tracing/cfi: Fix cmp_entries_* functions signature mismatch
If CONFIG_CFI_CLANG=y, attempting to read an event histogram will cause
the kernel to panic due to failed CFI check.

    1. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
    2. cat events/sched/sched_switch/hist
    3. kernel panics on attempting to read hist

This happens because the sort() function expects a generic
int (*)(const void *, const void *) pointer for the compare function.
To prevent this CFI failure, change tracing map cmp_entries_* function
signatures to match this.
