Fix compilation error in UPROBE_setup caused by pointer type mismatch in the ternary expression when compiled with -fcf-protection. The probed_uprobe function pointer has the __attribute__((nocf_check)) attribute, which causes the conditional operator to fail when combined with the regular probed_uretprobe function pointer:
seccomp_bpf.c:5175:74: error: pointer type mismatch in conditional expression [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
Cast both function pointers to 'const void *' to match the expected parameter type of get_uprobe_offset(), resolving the type mismatch while preserving the function selection logic.
This error appears with compilers that enable Control Flow Integrity (CFI) protection via -fcf-protection, such as Clang 19.1.2 (default on Fedora).

Hi all,
I'm following up on this patch that fixes the pointer type mismatch in UPROBE_setup when building with -fcf-protection. It resolves the incompatible-pointer-types error seen with Clang 19.
Please let me know if there are any comments or some changes needed.
Thanks, Nirbhay Sharma
