[PATCH v2 RESEND] crypto: lib/mpi - Extend support for scope-based resource management

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.

V2:
The kernel build service pointed out that the proposed identifier “T_”
was not recognised by the compiler.
Thus reserved identifiers need still be applied also at such a place instead
so far.
I became curious under which circumstances corresponding development concerns
will be reconsidered any more.
