The container_of() macro used in nvgpu produces the following
set of MISRA required rule violations:
* Rule 11.3 : A cast shall not be performed between a pointer to
object type and a pointer to a different object type.
* Rule 11.8 : A cast shall not remove any const or volatile
qualification from the type pointed to be a pointer.
* Rule 20.7 : Expressions resulting from the expansion of macro
parameters shall be enclosed in parentheses.
Using the same modified implementation of container_of() as that
used in the nvgpu_list_node/nvgpu_rbtree_node routines eliminates
the Rule 11.8 and Rule 20.7 violations and exchanges the Rule 11.3
violation with an advisory Rule 11.4 violation.
This patch uses that same equivalent implementation in two new
(static) functions that are used to replace references to
container_of() references in clk arb code:
* nvgpu_clk_dev_from_refcount
* nvgpu_clk_session_from_refcount
It should be noted that replacement functions still contain
potentially dangerous (and non-MISRA compliant code) and that it is
expected that deviation requests will be filed for the new advisory
rule violations accordingly.
