[PATCH v2] mm: kmemleak: Use address-of operator on section symbols
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Thu Feb 20 2020 - 00:16:00 EST
Clang warns:
These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are
just addresses. Using the address of operator silences the warning and
does not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld or
gcc/ld (tested with diff + objdump -Dr).

v1 -> v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200219045423.54190-6-natechancellor@xxxxxxxxx/
* No longer a series because there is no prerequisite patch.
* Use address-of operator instead of casting to unsigned long.
