Thanks.

I changed the patch title, reworked the changelog and added the Fixes:
information. Please check all this carefully.

Subject: kmemleak-test: fix kmemleak_test.c build logic
Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2023 14:09:04 +0800

kmemleak-test.c was moved to the samples directory in 1abbef4f51724
("mm,kmemleak-test.c: move kmemleak-test.c to samples dir").

If CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_TEST=m and CONFIG_SAMPLES is unset,
kmemleak-test.c will be unnecessarily compiled.

So move the entry for CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_TEST from mm/Kconfig and add a
new CONFIG_SAMPLE_KMEMLEAK in samples/ to control whether kmemleak-test.c
is built or not.
