Remove any GFP_KERNEL arguments found in the new kmalloc_obj-family
helpers. This captures the script used in commit 189f164e573e ("Convert
remaining multi-line kmalloc_obj/flex GFP_KERNEL uses").

Would it become helpful to clarify the software run time characteristics any further
for the selection of mentioned identifiers?

* SmPL disjunction

* Regular expression
