I worked on adding a 'free' a couple of years ago. That was capable
of freeing percpu, vmalloc, kmalloc and alloc_pages memory. I ran into
trouble when I tried to free kmem_cache_alloc memory -- it works for slab
and slub, but not slob (because slob needs the size from the kmem_cache).
My motivation for this was to change kfree_rcu() to just free_rcu().

I would say to leave kfree() alone and just introduce free() as a new
default. There's some weird places in the kernel that have a 'free'
symbol of their own, but those should be renamed anyway.
