bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

c95c2d328c lib: remove "expecting prototype" kernel-doc warnings
Fix various kernel-doc warnings in lib/ due to missing or erroneous
function names.

Add kernel-doc for some function parameters that was missing.  Use
kernel-doc "Return:" notation in earlycpio.c.

Quietens the following warnings:

  lib/earlycpio.c:61: warning: expecting prototype for cpio_data find_cpio_data(). Prototype was for find_cpio_data() instead

  lib/lru_cache.c:640: warning: expecting prototype for lc_dump(). Prototype was for lc_seq_dump_details() instead
  lru_cache.c:90: warning: Function parameter or member 'cache' not described in 'lc_create'

  lib/parman.c:368: warning: expecting prototype for parman_item_del(). Prototype was for parman_item_remove() instead
  parman.c:309: warning: Excess function parameter 'prority' description in 'parman_prio_init'

  lib/radix-tree.c:703: warning: expecting prototype for __radix_tree_insert(). Prototype was for radix_tree_insert() instead
  radix-tree.c:180: warning: Excess function parameter 'addr' description in 'radix_tree_find_next_bit'
  radix-tree.c:180: warning: Excess function parameter 'size' description in 'radix_tree_find_next_bit'
  radix-tree.c:931: warning: Function parameter or member 'iter' not described in 'radix_tree_iter_replace'

44091d29f2 lib: Introduce priority array area manager
This introduces a infrastructure for management of linear priority
areas. Priority order in an array matters, however order of items inside
a priority group does not matter.

As an initial implementation, L-sort algorithm is used. It is quite
trivial. More advanced algorithm called P-sort will be introduced as a
follow-up. The infrastructure is prepared for other algos.

Alongside this, a testing module is introduced as well.
