mm/slab: Add __free() support for kvfree
Allow for the declaration of variables that trigger kvfree() when they go out of scope. The check for NULL and call to kvfree() can be elided by the compiler in most cases, otherwise without the NULL check an unnecessary call to kvfree() may be emitted. Peter proposed a comment for this detail [1].
