With an early patch, just drop min_count altogether from this API,
assume 0.

This function doesn't have any callers, so please remove it.

Ah, that's still in use and we do need make_black_object(), contrary to
what I commented on a previous patch. We can still avoid changing
make_gray_object().

(we could replace the kmemleak_ignore_phys() calls
kmemleak_free_part_phys() but that's not in line with what we do for the
virtual objects)

This looks fine.
