[PATCH 1/4] livepatch/sample: Use the right type for the leaking data pointer

[Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>]

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.
