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 *".

c924c65f52 tee: implement protected DMA-heap
Implement DMA heap for protected DMA-buf allocation in the TEE
subsystem.

Protected memory refers to memory buffers behind a hardware enforced
firewall. It is not accessible to the kernel during normal circumstances
but rather only accessible to certain hardware IPs or CPUs executing in
higher or differently privileged mode than the kernel itself. This
interface allows to allocate and manage such protected memory buffers
via interaction with a TEE implementation.

The protected memory is allocated for a specific use-case, like Secure
Video Playback, Trusted UI, or Secure Video Recording where certain
hardware devices can access the memory.

The DMA-heaps are enabled explicitly by the TEE backend driver. The TEE
backend drivers needs to implement protected memory pool to manage the
protected memory.
