Subject: s390/smsgiucv_app: remove function pointer cast
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2024 11:24:36 -0700

Clang warns (or errors with CONFIG_WERROR) after enabling
-Wcast-function-type-strict by default:

  drivers/s390/net/smsgiucv_app.c:176:26: error: cast from 'void (*)(const void *)' to 'void (*)(struct device *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Werror,-Wcast-function-type-strict]
    176 |         smsg_app_dev->release = (void (*)(struct device *)) kfree;
        |                                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  1 error generated.

Add a standalone function to fix the warning properly, which addresses
the root of the warning that these casts are not safe for kCFI.
