Tetsuo Handa 1d5cfdb076 tree wide: use kvfree() than conditional kfree()/vfree()
There are many locations that do

  if (memory_was_allocated_by_vmalloc)
    vfree(ptr);
  else
    kfree(ptr);

but kvfree() can handle both kmalloc()ed memory and vmalloc()ed memory
using is_vmalloc_addr().  Unless callers have special reasons, we can
replace this branch with kvfree().  Please check and reply if you found
problems.
