Subject: [e2fsprogs PATCH] e2fsck: use inline functions for kernel slab functions

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

The macros that e2fsck uses to implement kmalloc et al. use only some of
their arguments, so unlike standard function calls, they can cause
compiler warnings like:

./../e2fsck/revoke.c:141:8: warning: variable 'gfp_mask' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

Fix this by providing a proper definition for each function, making sure
to match the function prototypes used in the kernel.

Remove the kmem_cache_t typedef, as it doesn't exist in the kernel.
