Please note that my test was run with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y which causes a red

that explain the kmalloc-96 objects ?
96 is almost guaranteed to be the sense buffer allocated in
scsi_init_request and freed in scsi_exit_request.
Hello Catalin and Christoph,
kmemleak still reports large numbers of unreferenced objects for the
scsi-mq code with the v4.2-rc4 kernel even with the recently posted
scsi-mq leak fix applied on top of v4.2-rc4. Here is an example of one
such report:
unreferenced object 0xffff88045e05dc28 (size 96):
comm "srp_daemon", pid 8461, jiffies 4294973034 (age 742.350s)
