include/linux: apply __malloc attribute

Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions.  This helps
gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't
alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the
pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing).

A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at
the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset:

	plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL);

	if (plane->state) {
		plane->state->plane = plane;
		plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0);
	}

which compiles to

    e8 99 bf d6 ff          callq  ffffffff8116d540 <kmem_cache_alloc_trace>
    48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax
    48 89 83 40 02 00 00    mov    %rax,0x240(%rbx)
    74 11                   je     ffffffff814015c4 <drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset+0x64>
    48 89 18                mov    %rbx,(%rax)
    48 8b 83 40 02 00 00    mov    0x240(%rbx),%rax [*]
    c7 40 40 01 00 00 00    movl   $0x1,0x40(%rax)

With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the
store to plane->state->plane is known to not alter the value of
plane->state.
