treewide: refresh kmalloc_obj() conversionsgrafted
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.

+
+Speakup is a kernel based screen review package for the linux operating
+system. It allows blind users to interact with applications on the
+linux console by means of synthetic speech.
+
+Currently, speakup has one issue we know of.
+
+It seems to only happen on SMP systems. It seems that text in the output buffer
+gets garbled because a lock is not set. This bug happens regularly, but no one
+has been able to find a situation which produces it consistently.
+
+Patches, suggestions, corrections, etc, are definitely welcome.
+
+We prefer that you contact us on the mailing list; however, if you do
+not want to subscribe to a mailing list, send your email to all of the
