SubjectRe: [PATCH 2.6.17-rc6 7/9] Remove some of the kmemleak false positives

It's not really reliable as it doesn't distinguish well between types.
All the structures, no matter what they contain, have the same id
(which I think only refers to the fact that it is built-in type,
pointer or structure, without differentiation).

The attached code gives the following results:

typeof(a) = 12, sizeof(a) = 136
typeof(b) = 12, sizeof(b) = 8
typeof(c) = 1, sizeof(c) = 4
typeof(d) = 1, sizeof(d) = 4
typeof(e) = 1, sizeof(e) = 4
typeof(f) = 1, sizeof(f) = 1
typeof(g) = 5, sizeof(g) = 4
typeof(h) = 5, sizeof(h) = 4

#include <stdio.h>

struct A {
void *a;
long b;
char c[128];
};

struct B {
long a;
void *b;
};

enum C {
a,
b
};

#define PRINT_TYPE(val) \
printf("typeof(" #val ") = %d, sizeof(" #val ") = %d\n", \
__builtin_classify_type(val), \
sizeof(val))

int main()
{
struct A a;
struct B b;
enum C c;
int d;
long e;
char f;
int *g;
char *h;

PRINT_TYPE(a);
PRINT_TYPE(b);
PRINT_TYPE(c);
PRINT_TYPE(d);
PRINT_TYPE(e);
PRINT_TYPE(f);
PRINT_TYPE(g);
PRINT_TYPE(h);

return 0;
}
