clang-9 does not like the way that the is_signed_type() compares
function pointers deep inside of the trace even macros:

I guess the warning is reasonable in principle, though this seems to
be the only instance we get in the entire kernel today.
Shut up the warning by making it a void pointer in the exported
structure.

Nick suggested this as well, I think it's reasonable to work around it
in this one location since this is indeed the only instance of this
warning that I see in the kernel tree across all of my builds.
