* kmemleak: Allow the early log buffer to be configurable.Catalin Marinas2009-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | (feature suggested by Sergey Senozhatsky) Kmemleak needs to track all the memory allocations but some of these happen before kmemleak is initialised. These are stored in an internal buffer which may be exceeded in some kernel configurations. This patch adds a configuration option with a default value of 400 and also removes the stack dump when the early log buffer is exceeded.
