Subject[PATCH 2/6] mm/slab: remove kmemleak_erase() call
Date
We already call kmemleak_no_scan() in initialization step of array cache,
so kmemleak doesn't scan array cache. Therefore, we don't need to call
kmemleak_erase() here.

And, this call is the last caller of kmemleak_erase(), so remove
kmemleak_erase() definition completely.
