Petr Mladek 8f6b88662c livepatch/sample: Use the right type for the leaking data pointer
The "leak" pointer, in the sample of shadow variable API, is allocated
as sizeof(int). Let's help developers and static analyzers with
understanding the code by using the appropriate pointer type.

/*
* livepatch-shadow-fix1.c - Shadow variables, livepatch demo
*
* Purpose
* -------
*
* Fixes the memory leak introduced in livepatch-shadow-mod through the
* use of a shadow variable. This fix demonstrates the "extending" of
* short-lived data structures by patching its allocation and release
* functions.
*
*
* Usage
* -----
*
* This module is not intended to be standalone. See the "Usage"
* section of livepatch-shadow-mod.c.
