Add a helper function io_cache_free() that returns an allocation to a io_alloc_cache, falling back on kfree() if the io_alloc_cache is full. This is the inverse of io_cache_alloc(), which takes an allocation from an io_alloc_cache and falls back on kmalloc() if the cache is empty. Convert 4 callers to use the helper.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
