From: Herton R. Krzesinski <herton(a)redhat.com&gt; Revert "mm/kmemleak: skip late_init if not skip disable" This reverts commit 24d8743613b2a6a585fc68cfe95078d9a3d5b389. This patch never went upstream. The original issue is expected to be fixed instead by commit 2abd839aa7e615f2bbc50c8ba7deb9e40d186768 ("kmemleak: Do not corrupt the object_list during clean-up"), see eg.: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/8/742 Signed-off-by: Herton R.
