[PATCH 5/6] mm: Call kmemleak directly from memblock_(alloc|free)

From: Catalin Marinas
Date: Fri May 02 2014 - 09:41:55 EST


Kmemleak could ignore memory blocks allocated via memblock_alloc()
leading to false positives during scanning. This patch adds the
corresponding callbacks and removes kmemleak_free_* calls in
mm/nobootmem.c to avoid duplication. The kmemleak_alloc() in
mm/nobootmem.c is kept since __alloc_memory_core_early() does not use
memblock_alloc() directly.
