contextcheck linter is broken in Github Actions

[ErikPelli]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've read the typecheck section of the FAQ (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/faq/#why-do-you-have-typecheck-errors).
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available (e.g., gocritic, go vet, etc.). (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)

Description of the problem

I was using the linter contextcheck with golangci-lint version 1.56.2 and earlier and there was absoloutely no problem,
Yesterday golangci-lint 1.57.0 was released and in the pipelines of our companies the following error appeared:

  Running [/home/runner/golangci-lint-1.57.0-linux-amd64/golangci-lint run --out-format=github-actions] in [] ...
  Error: Function `Start$1` should pass the context parameter (contextcheck)

  level=warning msg="[runner/source_code] Failed to get line 0 for file : failed to get file  lines cache: can't get file  bytes from cache: can't read file : open : no such file or directory"

This issue started yesterday and with the previous version 1.56.2 it was working.
Latest version of contextcheck is from 1 year ago so I suppose this is a problem related to some change in the latest version.

I tried to reproduce this issue locally but I haven't had any success.
I write this issue anyway so maybe someone can discover what it is.
We disabled this specific linter completely in our pipeline as a temporary fix.
