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.

+ * Generic net pointers are to be used by modules to put some private
+ * stuff on the struct net without explicit struct net modification
+ *
+ * The rules are simple:
+ * 1. set pernet_operations->id. After register_pernet_device you
+ * will have the id of your private pointer.
+ * 2. set pernet_operations->size to have the code allocate and free
+ * a private structure pointed to from struct net.
+ * 3. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
+ * 4. do not try to have any private reference on the net_generic object.
+ *
+ * After accomplishing all of the above, the private pointer can be
+ * accessed with the net_generic() call.
