I'd keep the comment short here, something like:

/*
 * MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_NOLEAKTRACE avoids kmemleak tracing. It implies
 * MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE.
 */

As the kernel test robot reported, the __ref annotation for
__earlyonly_bootmem_alloc() is still needed, otherwise you get a warning
that a __meminit function (vmemmap_alloc_block()) is calling an __init
one (memmap_alloc()). So I think it's better if you keep this function.
Maybe get it to call memmap_alloc() instead of
memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw().
