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.
