It seems to be a problem specific to kmemleak_alloc_percpu()
which does not get the 'gfp' param from pcpu_alloc. The comment from
kmemleak_alloc_percpu():
/*
* This function is called from the kernel percpu allocator when a new object
* (memory block) is allocated (alloc_percpu). It assumes GFP_KERNEL
* allocation.
*/

I will try out a change tomorrow.
