Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] crypto: lib/mpi - Extend support for scope-based
 resource management

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2024 11:06:35 +0200

Scope-based resource management became supported for some
programming interfaces by contributions of Peter Zijlstra on 2023-05-26.
See also the commit 54da6a0924311c7cf5015533991e44fb8eb12773 ("locking:
Introduce __cleanup() based infrastructure").

Thus add a macro call so that the attribute “__free(mpi_free)” can be
applied accordingly.
