[PATCH 3/6] lib: Update the kmemleak stack trace for radix tree allocations

From: Catalin Marinas
Date: Fri May 02 2014 - 09:42:31 EST


Since radix_tree_preload() stack trace is not always useful for
debugging an actual radix tree memory leak, this patch updates the
kmemleak allocation stack trace in the radix_tree_node_alloc() function.
