[ Upstream commit cf770af5645a41a753c55a053fa1237105b0964a ]
dmi_class uses kfree() as the .release function, but that now causes
a warning with clang-16 as it violates control flow integrity (KCFI)
rules:
drivers/firmware/dmi-id.c:174:17: error: cast from 'void (*)(const void *)' to 'void (*)(struct device *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Werror,-Wcast-function-type-strict]
174 | .dev_release = (void(*)(struct device *)) kfree,
Add an explicit function to call kfree() instead.
Fixes: 4f5c791a850e ("DMI-based module autoloading")

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.
