Add a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that drivers don't have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy(). Note that the implementation uses a custom devres action to call blk_ksm_destroy() rather than switching the two allocations to be directly devres-managed, e.g. with devm_kmalloc(). This is because we need to keep zeroing the memory containing the keyslots when it is freed, and also because we want to continue using kvmalloc() (and there is no devm_kvmalloc()).

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 Restructured Text 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.
