So this means that compiling with CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING will increase
the memory overhead of arrays allocated for CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM, even if
allocation profiling itself is not enabled in runtime? Similar concern to
the unconditional page_ext usage, that this would hinder enabling in a
general distro kernel.
The unused field overhead would be smaller than currently page_ext, but
getting rid of it when alloc profiling is not enabled would be more work
than introducing an early boot param for the page_ext case. Could be however
solved similarly to how page_ext is populated dynamically at runtime.
Hopefully it wouldn't add noticeable cpu overhead.
