ACPI: CPPC: Replace cppc_attr with kobj_attribute
All of the CPPC sysfs show functions are called via indirect call in kobj_attr_show(), where they should be of type ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_attribute *attr, char *buf); because that is the type of the ->show() member in 'struct kobj_attribute' but they are actually of type ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, char *buf); because of the ->show() member in 'struct cppc_attr', resulting in a Control Flow Integrity violation [1]. $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/acpi_cppc/highest_perf 3400 $ dmesg | grep "CFI failure" [ 175.970559] CFI failure (target: show_highest_perf+0x0/0x8): As far as I can tell, the only difference between 'struct cppc_attr' and 'struct kobj_attribute' aside from the type of the attr parameter is the type of the count parameter in the ->store() member (ssize_t vs. size_t), which does not actually matter because all of these nodes are read-only. Eliminate 'struct cppc_attr' in favor of 'struct kobj_attribute' to fix the violation.
