Qian Cai af4798a5bb mm/z3fold: silence kmemleak false positives of slots
Kmemleak reported many leaks while under memory pressue in,

    slots = alloc_slots(pool, gfp);

which is referenced by "zhdr" in init_z3fold_page(),

    zhdr->slots = slots;

However, "zhdr" could be gone without freeing slots as the later will be
freed separately when the last "handle" off of "handles" array is freed.
It will be within "slots" which is always aligned.

  unreferenced object 0xc000000fdadc1040 (size 104):
  comm "oom04", pid 140476, jiffies 4295359280 (age 3454.970s)

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.
