You can also add:

Fixes: 245245c2fffd ("mm/kmemleak: move the initialisation of object to __link_object")

Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx>

I now realised that we update the object allocation stack trace via the
delete_object_part() when we shouldn't. I'd say __alloc_object() can
take a trace_handle as argument and if it's !0, set it directly whithout
calling set_track_prepare() (as a separate patch).
