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.

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 *".

The "cmd->in_offset" variable comes from the user via the __nd_ioctl()
function. The problem is that the "cmd->in_offset + cmd->in_length"
addition could have an integer wrapping issue if cmd->in_offset is close
to UINT_MAX . Both "cmd->in_offset" and "cmd->in_length" are u32
variables.

There are use cases, for example virtual machine hosts, that create
"persistent" memory regions using memmap= option on x86 or dummy
pmem-region device tree nodes on DT based systems.
Both these options are inflexible because they create static regions and
the layout of the "persistent" memory cannot be adjusted without reboot
and sometimes they even require firmware update.
Add a ramdax driver that allows creation of DIMM devices on top of
E820_TYPE_PRAM regions and devicetree pmem-region nodes.
The DIMMs support label space management on the "device" and provide a
flexible way to access RAM using fsdax and devdax.
