Subject: kmemleak: Do not report alloc_bootmem blocks as leaks
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=008139d9146f9afee0e58df4b7422d0c9921f8ce;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

kmemleak: Do not report alloc_bootmem blocks as leaks

This patch sets the min_count for alloc_bootmem objects to 0 so that
they are never reported as leaks. This is because many of these blocks
are only referred via the physical address which is not looked up by
kmemleak.
