[Devel] [PATCH rh7 2/2] kasan: fix kmemleak false-positive in kasan_module_alloc()

[Andrey Ryabinin]

Kmemleak reports the following leak:
	unreferenced object 0xfffffbfff41ea000 (size 20480):
	comm "modprobe", pid 65199, jiffies 4298875551 (age 542.568s)
	hex dump (first 32 bytes):
	  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
	  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................

kasan_module_alloc() allocates shadow memory for module and frees it on module
unloading. But it doesn't store the pointer to allocated shadow memory because
it could be calculated from the shadowed address, i.e. kasan_mem_to_shadow(addr).
Since kmemleak cannot find pointer to allocated shadow, it thinks that memory leaked.
Tell kmemleak that this is not a leak.
