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.

+ select NETLABEL
+ select SECURITY_NETWORK
+ default n
+ help
+ This selects the Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel.
+ Smack is useful for sensitivity, integrity, and a variety
+ of other mandatory security schemes.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_BRINGUP
+ bool "Reporting on access granted by Smack rules"
+ depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+ default n
+ help
+ Enable the bring-up ("b") access mode in Smack rules.
+ When access is granted by a rule with the "b" mode a
+ message about the access requested is generated. The
+ intention is that a process can be granted a wide set
+ of access initially with the bringup mode set on the
+ rules. The developer can use the information to
+ identify which rules are necessary and what accesses
+ may be inappropriate. The developer can reduce the
+ access rule set once the behavior is well understood.
+ This is a superior mechanism to the oft abused
+ "permissive" mode of other systems.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
+
+config SECURITY_SMACK_NETFILTER
+ bool "Packet marking using secmarks for netfilter"
+ depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+ depends on NETWORK_SECMARK
+ depends on NETFILTER
+ default n
+ help
+ This enables security marking of network packets using
+ Smack labels.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
+
+config SECURITY_SMACK_APPEND_SIGNALS
+ bool "Treat delivering signals as an append operation"
+ depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+ default n
+ help
+ Sending a signal has been treated as a write operation to the
+ receiving process. If this option is selected, the delivery
+ will be an append operation instead. This makes it possible
+ to differentiate between delivering a network packet and
+ delivering a signal in the Smack rules.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
