43f5b3085f uml: fix build when SLOB is enabled
Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code.  The
previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly
from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate
with slab, and it doesn't work with slob.

So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back.  It calls kmalloc or whatever
that translates into, and libc code calls it.

kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat
inconsistent API.

e4c4bf9968 uml: Eliminate kernel allocator wrappers
UML had two wrapper procedures for kmalloc, um_kmalloc and um_kmalloc_atomic
because the flag constants weren't available in userspace code.
kern_constants.h had made kernel constants available for a long time, so there
is no need for these wrappers any more.  Rather, userspace code calls kmalloc
directly with the userspace versions of the gfp flags.

kmalloc isn't a real procedure, so I had to essentially copy the inline
wrapper around __kmalloc.

vmalloc also had its own wrapper for no good reason.  This is now gone.

6e21aec3fc uml: tidy process.c
Clean up arch/um/kernel/process.c:

- lots of return(x); -> return x; conversions

- a number of the small functions are either unused, in which case they are
  gone, along any declarations in a header, or could be made static.

- current_pid is ifdefed on CONFIG_MODE_TT and its declaration is ifdefed on
  both CONFIG_MODE_TT and UML_CONFIG_MODE_TT because we don't know whether
  it's being used in a userspace or kernel file.

c13e569073 [PATCH] uml: split memory allocation prototypes out of user.h
user.h is too generic a header name.  I've split out allocation routines from
it.
