Clang warns:

../arch/s390/boot/kaslr.c:78:25: warning: passing 'char *' to parameter

Fix the cast to match what else is done in this function.

Why not change the function to take void *?

static inline int cpacf_kmc(unsigned long func, void *param,
			    u8 *dest, const u8 *src, long src_len)

vs:

static inline int cpacf_kmc(unsigned long func, void *param,
			    void *dest, const void *src, long src_len)

and remove the casts?

I can certainly do that if the maintainers prefer it.

KBUILD_CFLAGS contains -Wno-pointer-sign but special arch/s390/boot code
has a separate set of build flags. Anyhow the change makes sense as it is.
Applied to fixes, thanks
