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 *".

Two kinds of objects there - ptmx and everything else (pty).  The former is
created on mount and kept until the fs shutdown; the latter get created
and removed by tty layer (the references are borrowed into tty->driver_data).
The reference to ptmx dentry is also kept, but we only ever use it to
find ptmx inode on remount.

* turn d_add() into d_make_persistent() + dput()  both in mknod_ptmx() and
in devpts_pty_new().

* turn dput() to d_make_discardable() in devpts_pty_kill().

* switch mknod_ptmx() to simple_{start,done}_creating().

* instead of storing in pts_fs_info a reference to ptmx dentry, store a reference
to its inode, seeing that this is what we use it for.

Default ->d_op being simple_dentry_operations is equivalent to leaving
it NULL and putting DCACHE_DONTCACHE into ->s_d_flags.

All in-tree filesystem converted (and field itself is renamed,
so any out-of-tree ones in need of conversion will be caught
by compiler).

Fix devpts to parse uid and gid params using the correct type so that they
get interpreted in the context of the user namespace.

Convert the devpts filesystem to the new internal mount API as the old
one will be obsoleted and removed.  This allows greater flexibility in
communication of mount parameters between userspace, the VFS and the
filesystem.

See Documentation/filesystems/mount_api.txt for more information.

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.

Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in
making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the
register sysctl call that expects a size.
