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.

+Convert a C header or source file ``FILE_IN``, into a ReStructured Text
+included via ..parsed-literal block with cross-references for the
+documentation files that describe the API. It accepts an optional
+``FILE_RULES`` file to describes what elements will be either ignored or
+be pointed to a non-default reference type/name.
+
+The output is written at ``FILE_OUT``.
+
+It is capable of identifying defines, functions, structs, typedefs,
+enums and enum symbols and create cross-references for all of them.
+It is also capable of distinguish #define used for specifying a Linux
+ioctl.
+
+The optional ``FILE_RULES`` contains a set of rules like:
+
+ ignore ioctl VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT
+ replace ioctl VIDIOC_DQBUF vidioc_qbuf
+ replace define V4L2_EVENT_MD_FL_HAVE_FRAME_SEQ :c:type:`v4l2_event_motion_det`
