Well ok, but krealloc_noprof() is just an internal implementation
detail.  I suggest this documentation be moved to the new krealloc()
wrapper site.  Because krealloc() remains the thing which people
actually call.

Presumably the same applies to more of the new _noprof functions.

Nack.

We don't need this fixup. Randy Dunlap's change [1] should handle
_noprof suffixes correctly. The warning was likely generated because
his change was not yet picked up.

Seems like a fix-up for the alloc tagging series in mm.
