Casting mapping->a_ops->readpage to filler_t causes an indirect call type mismatch with Control-Flow Integrity checking. This change fixes the mismatch in read_cache_page_gfp and read_mapping_page by adding a stub callback function with the correct type.
As the kernel only has a couple of instances of read_cache_page(s) being called with a callback function that doesn't accept struct file* as the first parameter, Android kernels have previously fixed this by changing filler_t to int (*filler_t)(struct file *, struct page *): https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/kernel/common/+/671260 While this approach did fix most of the issues, the few remaining cases where unrelated private data are passed to the callback become rather awkward. Keeping filler_t unchanged and using a stub function for readpage instead solves this problem.
