Beginning at commit d52d3997f843 ("ipv6: Create percpu rt6_info"), the
following INFO splat is logged:
===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
4.1.0-rc7-next-20150612 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------
kernel/sched/core.c:7318 Illegal context switch in RCU-bh read-side critical section!
other info that might help us debug this:
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0

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 follow the gfp from its callers.
