After commit 71f09c5ae9d2 ("staging: r8188eu: Remove wrapper around
vfree"), the driver fails to build on Hexagon due to an implicit
declaration in several different files:

drivers/staging/r8188eu/core/rtw_mlme.c:129:3: error: implicit
declaration of function 'vfree'
[-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
vfree(pmlmepriv->free_bss_buf);
^
1 error generated.

Previously, vfree() was only called in osdep_service.c, which includes
vmalloc.h for vmalloc() and vfree(). Now, the driver relies on vfree()
getting implicitly included from another file.

Hoist the vmalloc.h include from osdep_service.c to osdep_service.h so
that the driver continues to build fine on all architectures.

For some reason this header is pulled in on x86_64. What CPU does Hexagon use?
