Commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces back to the page allocator.
kernel_init kvm_guest_init kvm_free_tmp free_reserved_area free_unref_page free_unref_page_prepare
With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, it will unmap those pages from kernel. As the result, kmemleak scan will trigger a panic when it scans the .bss section with unmapped pages.
This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and potentially .data..ro_after_init sections to allow partial freeing via the kmemleak_free_part() in the powerpc kvm_free_tmp() function.

This commit has other problems, so we also need the following commits:
commit dce5b0bdeec61bdbee56121ceb1d014151d5cab1 Author: Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de Date: Thu Apr 18 17:50:48 2019 -0700
mm/kmemleak.c: fix unused-function warning
The only references outside of the #ifdef have been removed, so now we get a warning in non-SMP configurations:
mm/kmemleak.c:1404:13: error: unused function 'scan_large_block' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
Add a new #ifdef around it.
