[PATCH] lazyload.h: use an even more generic function pointer than FARPROC

From
Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón <carenas@gmail.com>
Date
Sep 23, 2021, 06:03 UTC
Message-ID
<20210923060306.21073-1-carenas@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<4381472f-a9db-b8a7-a395-81c3935309ae@kdbg.org>

gcc will helpfully raise a -Wcast-function-type warning when casting between functions that might have incompatible return types (ex: GetUserNameExW returns bool which is only half the size of the return type from FARPROC which is long long), so create a new type that could be used as a completely generic function pointer and cast through it instead.

Additionaly remove the -Wno-incompatible-pointer-types temporary flag added in 27e0c3c (win32: allow building with pedantic mode enabled, 2021-09-03), as it will be no longer needed.
