Nitpick: please add spaces after/before the comment delimiters. I'd also
make it clearer that it's not about kmemleak being initialised but
rather the stack depot. E.g.:
/*
* Use object_cache to determine whether kmemleak_init() has
* been invoked. stack_depot_early_init() is called before
* kmemleak_init() in mm_core_init().
*/
