I, like others, think this should probably be left out until someone 
actually needs to use it.

Why is "free:" itself moved?  It is unlikely, but I could imagine that 
this might break something that is parsing the kernel log and it would be 
better to just leave it where it is and add "free_pcp:" after "free_cma:" 
since this is extending the message.
