Michal Hocko 752ade68cb treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variants
There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc.  Let's use the helper
instead.  The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are
usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator.  E.g.
allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing
and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation.  This sounds too
disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc.
On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the
memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction
attempts previously.  There is no guarantee something like that happens
though.

This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because
they are more conservative.
