scsi: proc: Use kmalloc() in proc writers

proc_scsi_host_write(), proc_scsi_write() and proc_scsi_devinfo_write()
allocate temporary buffers for /proc writes using __get_free_page().

These buffers can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special
about them to go directly to the page allocator.

kmalloc() provides a better API that does not require ugly casts and
kfree() does not need to know the size of the freed object.

Replace use of __get_free_page() with kmalloc().
