[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 58/81] x86/mm: Fix a crash with kmemleak_scan()

[ Upstream commit 0d02113b31b2017dd349ec9df2314e798a90fa6e ]

The first kmemleak_scan() call after boot would trigger the crash below
because this callpath:

kernel_init
free_initmem
mem_encrypt_free_decrypted_mem
free_init_pages

unmaps memory inside the .bss when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y.

kmemleak_init() will register the .data/.bss sections and then
kmemleak_scan() will scan those addresses and dereference them looking
for pointer references. If free_init_pages() frees and unmaps pages in
those sections, kmemleak_scan() will crash if referencing one of those
addresses:

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffbd402000
CPU: 12 PID: 325 Comm: kmemleak Not tainted 5.1.0-rc4+ #4
RIP: 0010:scan_block
Call Trace:
scan_gray_list
kmemleak_scan
kmemleak_scan_thread
kthread
ret_from_fork

Since kmemleak_free_part() is tolerant to unknown objects (not tracked
by kmemleak), it is fine to call it from free_init_pages() even if not
all address ranges passed to this function are known to kmemleak.
