Qian Cai c59180ae3e mm/kmemleak: increase the max mem pool to 1M
There are some machines with slow disk and fast CPUs.  When they are under
memory pressure, it could take a long time to swap before the OOM kicks in
to free up some memory.  As the results, it needs a large mem pool for
kmemleak or suffering from higher chance of a kmemleak metadata allocation
failure.  524288 proves to be the good number for all architectures here.
Increase the upper bound to 1M to leave some room for the future.

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.
