[GIT PULL] Kmemleak fixes

[Catalin Marinas]

Hi Linus,

Would you please consider merging the kmemleak branch?

It contains several fixes to bugs raised recently and also reduces the
number of false positives to nearly 0 (actually making the tool usable -
one of the slub kmalloc calls for large blocks was completely missed and
bootmem allocations would need to be tracked as well since many of them
contain valid pointers).

Thanks.
