Merge branch 'kmemleak' of git://linux-arm.org/linux-2.6
* 'kmemleak' of git://linux-arm.org/linux-2.6: kmemleak: Inform kmemleak about pid_hash kmemleak: Do not warn if an unknown object is freed kmemleak: Do not report new leaked objects if the scanning was stopped kmemleak: Slightly change the policy on newly allocated objects kmemleak: Do not trigger a scan when reading the debug/kmemleak file kmemleak: Simplify the reports logged by the scanning thread kmemleak: Enable task stacks scanning by default kmemleak: Allow the early log buffer to be configurable.
