Subject: [PATCH] xfrm/compat: Remove use of kmalloc_track_caller

The __kmalloc_track_caller symbol is not exported if SLUB/SLOB are
enabled instead of SLAB, which breaks the build on such configs when
CONFIG_XFRM_USER_COMPAT=m.

ERROR: "__kmalloc_track_caller" [net/xfrm/xfrm_compat.ko] undefined!

Other users of this symbol are 'bool' options, but changing this to
bool would require XFRM_USER to be built in as well, which doesn't
seem worth it. Go back to kmalloc().

Fixes: 96392ee5a13b9 ("xfrm/compat: Translate 32-bit user_policy from sockptr")
