[PATCH] fork: fix kmemleak false positive due to thread stacks caching

[Luis Henriques]

kmemleak has been reporting memory leaks since commit ac496bf48d97 ("fork:
Optimize task creation by caching two thread stacks per CPU if
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y"):

unreferenced object 0xffffc900002b0000 (size 16384):
  comm "init", pid 147, jiffies 4294893306 (age 11.292s)

This is because this commit started caching 2 thread stacks per CPU, and
kmemleak assumes its memory is never freed.  Report these stacks as not
being memory leaks using kmemleak_not_leak().
