Just like this:
commit 620951e27457 ("mm/cma: make kmemleak ignore CMA regions").
Add kmemleak_ignore_phys() for CMA created from of reserved node.Could we please have a full, standalone changelog for this patch? The 620951e27457 changelog says "Without this, the kernel crashes...". Does your patch also fix a crash? If so under what circumstances and should we backport this fix into -stable kernels? Etcetera.
