cleanup: Provide retain_and_null_ptr()

cleanup: Provide retain_and_null_ptr()

In cases where an allocation is consumed by another function, the
allocation needs to be retained on success or freed on failure. The code
pattern is usually:

	struct foo *f = kzalloc(sizeof(*f), GFP_KERNEL);
	struct bar *b;

	,,,
	// Initialize f
	...
	if (ret)
		goto free;
        ...
	bar = bar_create(f);
	if (!bar) {
		ret = -ENOMEM;
	   	goto free;
	}
	...
	return 0;
free:
	kfree(f);
	return ret;

This prevents using __free(kfree) on @f because there is no canonical way
to tell the cleanup code that the allocation should not be freed.

Abusing no_free_ptr() by force ignoring the return value is not really a
sensible option either.

Provide an explicit macro retain_and_null_ptr(), which NULLs the cleanup
pointer. That makes it easy to analyze and reason about.
