I think the proper fix is to fix the typedef to:

typedef bool (*check_reserved_t)(u64 start, u64 end, enum e820_type type);

because

* is_mmconf_reserved() is passing in E820_TYPE_RESERVED which is enum e820_type

* is_acpi_reserved() is the other check_reserved_t function ptr and the last arg
type there is unused so it can just as well be enum e820_type.

Thx.
