Tobias Klauser 7787b6fc93 bpf, sysctl: Let bpf_stats_handler take a kernel pointer buffer
Commit 32927393dc ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
changed ctl_table.proc_handler to take a kernel pointer. Adjust the
signature of bpf_stats_handler to match ctl_table.proc_handler which
fixes the following sparse warning:

kernel/sysctl.c:226:49: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces)
kernel/sysctl.c:226:49:    expected void *
kernel/sysctl.c:226:49:    got void [noderef] __user *buffer
kernel/sysctl.c:2640:35: warning: incorrect type in initializer (incompatible argument 3 (different address spaces))
kernel/sysctl.c:2640:35:    expected int ( [usertype] *proc_handler )( ... )
kernel/sysctl.c:2640:35:    got int ( * )( ... )

Fixes: 32927393dc ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
