Hello!

I see this kmemleak report in a slightly modified 3.9.5 kernel
(no patches to the ext4 subsystem).

Any idea if this is real and/or what a fix would be?

I now think this is bogus.  I disabled SLUB debugging and other debugging
options and now I no longer see this reported by kmemleak.

Thanks,
Ben
