Subject: [PATCH] mm: kmemleak: slob: respect SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE flag
Date:   Sun, 14 Nov 2021 18:08:50 -0800

When kmemleak is enabled for SLOB, system does not boot and does not
print anything to the console. At the very early stage in the boot
process we hit infinite recursion from kmemleak_init() and eventually
kernel crashes.
kmemleak_init() specifies SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE for KMEM_CACHE(), but
kmem_cache_create_usercopy() removes it because CACHE_CREATE_MASK is not
valid for SLOB.
Let's fix CACHE_CREATE_MASK and make kmemleak work with SLOB
