From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Subject: mm: remove __vfree
Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2023 08:10:43 +0100

__vfree is a subset of vfree that just skips a few checks, and which is
only used by vfree and an error cleanup path.  Fold __vfree into vfree and
switch the only other caller to call vfree() instead.
