kmemleak: powerpc: skip scanning holes in the .bss section
[ Upstream commit 298a32b132087550d3fa80641ca58323c5dfd4d9 ]
Commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds
kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces
back to the page allocator.
kernel_init
kvm_guest_init
kvm_free_tmp
free_reserved_area
free_unref_page
free_unref_page_prepare
With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, it will unmap those pages from kernel. As the
result, kmemleak scan will trigger a panic when it scans the .bss
section with unmapped pages.
This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and
potentially .data..ro_after_init sections to allow partial freeing via
the kmemleak_free_part() in the powerpc kvm_free_tmp() function.
