Subject[PATCH -next] mm/kmemleak: increase the max mem pool to 1M
Date
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.

Kmemleak must track all the memory allocations to avoid
