Additional backtrace lines are truncated. In addition, the above splat is
followed by several "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context
at mm/slub.c:1268" outputs. As suggested by Martin KaFai Lau, these are the
clue to the fix. Routine kmemleak_alloc_percpu() always uses GFP_KERNEL
for its allocations, whereas it should use the value input to pcpu_alloc().
Just a minor nit, 'kmemleak_alloc_percpu() should follow the gfp from
per_alloc()' may be a more accurate title to describe the patch.

Do you mean that the subject should be changed?
