Round up allocations with kmalloc_size_roundup() so that devres's use
of ksize() is always accurate and no special handling of the memory is
needed by KASAN, UBSAN_BOUNDS, nor FORTIFY_SOURCE.

<title>devres: Slightly optimize alloc_dr()</title>

If the gfp flag used for the memory allocation already has __GFP_ZERO,
then there is no need to explicitly clear the "struct devres_node". It is
already zeroed.

This saves a few cycles when using devm_zalloc() and co.

In the case of devres_alloc() (which calls __devres_alloc_node()), the
compiler could remove the test and the memset() because it should be able
to see that the __GFP_ZERO flag is set.
So this would make the code both faster and smaller.

In some cases the printf() mechanism is too heavy and can't be used.
For example, when debugging a race condition involving devres API.
When CONFIG_DEBUG_DEVRES is enabled I can't reproduce an issue, and
otherwise it's quite visible with a useful information being collected.

Enable trace events for devres part of the driver core.

It seems for the sake of saving stack memory of couple of pointers,
the locking in release_nodes() callers becomes interesting.

Replace this logic with a straight forward locking and unlocking scheme.
