Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/xive: silence kmemleak false positives
Date: Wed, 13 May 2020 09:40:46 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200513134046.1089-1-cai@lca.pw> (raw)

opal_xive_donate_page() will reference the newly allocated memory using
__pa(). Since kmemleak is unable to track the physical memory resulting
in false positives, silence those by using kmemleak_ignore().

unreferenced object 0xc000201b53e90000 (size 65536):
 comm "qemu-kvm", pid 124557, jiffies 4295650285 (age 364.370s)
