Subject: [PATCH RFC] kmemleak vs. memory hotplug
Hi,
I noticed in the Kconfig that kmemleak can not be set without
MEMORY_HOTPLUG being unset. I'd like to be able to enable both. Below,
is an rfc patch, completely untested, as a starting point. Hopefully,
ppl more knowledgeable in this area can comment.
thanks,
-Jason

Say Y here if you want to enable the memory leak
detector. The memory allocation/freeing is traced in a way
