This reverts commit 972fa3a7c17c9d60212e32ecc0205dc585b1e769. Kmemleak operates by periodically scanning memory regions for pointers to allocated memory blocks to determine if they are leaked or not. However, reserved memory regions can be used for DMA transactions between a device and a CPU, and thus, wouldn't contain pointers to allocated memory blocks, making them inappropriate for kmemleak to scan. Thus, revert this commit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
