     Subject: mm/mempool.c: update the kmemleak stack trace for mempool allocations

------------------------------------------------------
From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/mempool.c: update the kmemleak stack trace for mempool allocations

When mempool_alloc() returns an existing pool object, kmemleak_alloc() is
no longer called and the stack trace corresponds to the original object
allocation.  This patch updates the kmemleak allocation stack trace for
such objects to make it more useful for debugging.
