The problem is, init_state_mode() assign same function callback to
different function pointer declarations.

static int init_state_node(struct cpuidle_state *idle_state,
const struct of_device_id *matches,
struct device_node *state_node)
{
...
idle_state->enter = match_id->data;
...
idle_state->enter_s2idle = match_id->data;
}

Function declarations:

struct cpuidle_state {
...
int (*enter) (struct cpuidle_device *dev,
struct cpuidle_driver *drv,
int index);

void (*enter_s2idle) (struct cpuidle_device *dev,
struct cpuidle_driver *drv,
int index);
};

In this case, either enter() or enter_s2idle() would cause CFI check
failed since they use same callee.

We try to align function prototype of enter() since it needs return
value for some use cases. The return value of enter_s2idle() is no need
currently.
