Catalin Marinas c566586818 mm: kmemleak: use the memory pool for early allocations

Currently kmemleak uses a static early_log buffer to trace all memory
allocation/freeing before the slab allocator is initialised.  Such early
log is replayed during kmemleak_init() to properly initialise the kmemleak
metadata for objects allocated up that point.  With a memory pool that
does not rely on the slab allocator, it is possible to skip this early log
entirely.

In order to remove the early logging, consider kmemleak_enabled == 1 by
default while the kmem_cache availability is checked directly on the
object_cache and scan_area_cache variables.  The RCU callback is only
invoked after object_cache has been initialised as we wouldn't have any
concurrent list traversal before this.

In order to reduce the number of callbacks before kmemleak is fully
initialised, move the kmemleak_init() call to mm_init().
