This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc()
family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci

This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first
kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the
first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h
scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's
"--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped
to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control
flow indicator I could find.

Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc,
riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

<title>Drivers: hv: vmbus: Add vmbus_alloc_buffer()/vmbus_free_buffer() for CoCo VMs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:73fe42af955a24b6cc792b9a4867e809196f05ed</id>
<content type='text'>
On CoCo VMs without confidential VMBus, the netvsc send and receive buffers
must be made host-visible by decrypting them. These buffers are vmalloc'ed,
but set_memory_decrypted()/encrypted() do not work on vmalloc'ed memory.
This use case is (so far) unique to netvsc, so solve it locally rather than
changing the set_memory() or allocation APIs.

Add vmbus_alloc_buffer()/vmbus_free_buffer() to the VMBus core. When the
guest's isolation model requires it, allocate the buffer as a list of
physically-contiguous chunks via alloc_pages_node(), starting at
MAX_PAGE_ORDER and falling back to smaller orders so the allocation still
succeeds under memory fragmentation. Each chunk is decrypted in place via
set_memory_decrypted() on its direct-map address, and the chunks are then
stitched into a single virtually-contiguous range with vmap(). Buffers that
do not need decryption keep using vzalloc().

To free the buffer, vmbus_free_buffer() calls vunmap() on the range then
re-encrypts and frees each chunk individually; any chunk that fails
re-encryption is leaked to prevent accidentally freeing decrypted memory.

This approach minimizes scattering of decrypted 4 KiB pages through the
kernel direct map and the resulting shattering of large page mappings.

<content type='text'>
Add a new vmbus_establish_gpadl_caller_decrypted() for callers that want to
decrypt their own buffers. Add a new hv_gpadl_type,
HV_GPADL_BUFFER_DECRYPTED, to communicate the decryption status of the
buffer.

No functional change for existing callers.

The early failure path in __vmbus_establish_gpadl() doesn't deallocate
msginfo if the buffer fails to decrypt.

Fix the leak by breaking out the cleanup code into a separate function
and calling it where required.

<title>Drivers: hv: Simplify data structures for VMBus channel close message</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2d0ddbb65cef99aab241378b0f4ff2d6ea8c3a5a</id>
<content type='text'>
struct vmbus_close_msg is used for sending the VMBus channel close
message. It contains a struct vmbus_channel_msginfo, which has a
flex array member at the end. The latter's presence in the middle
of struct vmbus_close_msg causes warnings when built with
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end.

But the struct vmbus_channel_msginfo is unused because the Hyper-V host
does not send a response to the channel close message. So remove the
struct vmbus_channel_msginfo. Then, since the only remaining field is
struct vmbus_channel_close_channel, also remove the containing struct
vmbus_close_msg and directly use struct vmbus_channel_close_channel.
Besides eliminating unnecessary complexity, these changes resolve the
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings.

<content type='text'>
vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() is currently used only by the storvsc driver
and is hardcoded to create a single GPA range. To allow it to also be
used by the netvsc driver to create multiple GPA ranges, no longer
hardcode as having a single GPA range. Allow the calling driver to
specify the rangecount in the supplied descriptor.

Update the storvsc driver to reflect this new approach.
