[PATCH v5 0/5] staging: rtl8723bs: replace custom wrappers with kernel APIs

[Minu Jin <s9430939@naver.com>]

This series replaces redundant custom wrapper functions (rtw_malloc(),
rtw_zmalloc(), rtw_skb_alloc(), etc.) with standard kernel APIs (kmalloc(),
kzalloc(), kmemdup(), skb_copy(), __dev_alloc_skb()).

The original wrappers relied on an internal in_interrupt() check to
select GFP flags. I have analyzed all call sites and replaced them with
explicit GFP_KERNEL or GFP_ATOMIC flags based on the context.

Changes in v5:
(suggested by Andy Shevchenko)
- Completely restructured the patch series.
- Use kmemdup() where applicable (replacing kmalloc + memcpy patterns).
- Used kzalloc() for allocations followed by manual zero-initialization.
- Used array_size() and size_add() for overflow-safe allocations.
- Updated error return codes from -1 to -ENOMEM where appropriate.

Changes in v4
(suggested by Andy Shevchenko)
- Use kmemdup() where applicable.
- Use array_size(), size_add() for overflow safe allocations.
- Use sizeof(*ptr) instead of sizeof(struct val) for
  better maintainability.

Changes in v3
- I have analyzed each call site to apply the appropriate GFP flags
  based on the execution context.

- Improved the logical separation of patches to maintain git bisect

- Removed redundant definitions and unused macros (e.g., rtw_skb_alloc_f)
  in the final cleanup patch.
