Not always.  This message is reporting the improper usage of a public API.
If we were to, for example, split the function into two and rename this
half of it __kmem_cache_destroy(), we'd still want this message to say
kmem_cache_destroy.

I don't think we should apply this change, and if you have similar patches
in mind, I'd like to see a more detailed argument than "it's better".
