Calling no_free_ptr() for an __iomem pointer results in sparse
complaining about the types:
sparse: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
sparse: expected void const volatile *val
sparse: got void [noderef] __iomem *__val
(The example from drivers/platform/x86/intel/pmc/core_ssram.c:277).
The problem is caused by the signature of __must_check_fn() added in
the commit 85be6d842447 ("cleanup: Make no_free_ptr() __must_check") to
enforce return value is always used.
Use __force to allow both iomem and non-iomem pointers to be given for
no_free_ptr().
