[PATCH] md: simplify free_params for kmalloc vs vmalloc fallback

[Michal Hocko]

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

Use kvfree rather than DM_PARAMS_[KV]MALLOC specific param flags.

this is a rebase on top of dropped "dm: clean up GFP_NIO usage" which
should be dropped as per the feedback from Mikulas.
