Fix the following warning when defining a cleanup guard for a "const"
pointer type:

  211 |         return _T->lock;                                                \

I think both of these patches are a bit ugly as we burden the generic
cleanup code with casting to void which could cause actual issues.

Casting from const to non-const is rather specific to the cred code so I
would rather like to put the burden on the cred code instead of the
generic code if possible.

Fair point.

For what it's worth, I liked your changes, will remove these two "fixes"
from the series and use your suggestions in the next version.


Thank you,

Thinking about proposing a PATCH version (with these suggestions applied), Amir
has suggested in the past that I should propose two separate series:
 (1) introducing the guard helpers + backing file changes;
 (2) overlayfs changes;

Any new ideas about this? Or should I go with this plan?


Cheers,

I mean make it two separate patches and I can provide Amir with a stable
branch for the cleanup guards. I think that's what he wanted.

But send them out in one series ofc. Amir and I can sort this if needed.
