Qian Cai 0c81585499 mm/page_ext.c: fix an imbalance with kmemleak
After offlining a memory block, kmemleak scan will trigger a crash, as
it encounters a page ext address that has already been freed during
memory offlining.  At the beginning in alloc_page_ext(), it calls
kmemleak_alloc(), but it does not call kmemleak_free() in
free_page_ext().

README

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.
