kmemleak: Add the base support
This patch adds the base support for the kernel memory leak
detector. It traces the memory allocation/freeing in a way similar to
the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the difference being that
the unreferenced objects are not freed but only shown in
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this feature introduces an
overhead to memory allocations.
