Subject: Issue with kfence and kmemleak
Hi!
This is probably a known issue, but just in case: looks like it's not
possible to use kmemleak when kfence is enabled:
[ 0.272136] kmemleak: Cannot insert 0xffff888236e02f00 into the object search tree (overlaps existing)

I've tried the hack below but it didn't really helped. Obviously I don't
really understand what's going on ;-) But I think the reason for this
patch not working as (I) expected is because kfence is initialised
*before* kmemleak.
