<linux/cleanup.h>: Allow the passing of both iomem and non-iomem pointers to no_free_ptr()


Calling no_free_ptr() for an __iomem pointer results in Sparse
complaining about the types:

  warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
     expected void const volatile *val
     got void [noderef] __iomem *__val

[ The example is from drivers/platform/x86/intel/pmc/core_ssram.c:283 ]

The problem is caused by the signature of __must_check_fn() added in:

  85be6d84 ("cleanup: Make no_free_ptr() __must_check")

... to enforce that the return value is always used.

Use __force to allow both iomem and non-iomem pointers to be given for
no_free_ptr().
