    Kmemleak reports the following leak:

    kasan_module_alloc() allocates shadow memory for module and frees it on
    module unloading.  It doesn't store the pointer to allocated shadow memory
    because it could be calculated from the shadowed address, i.e.
    kasan_mem_to_shadow(addr).
    
    Since kmemleak cannot find pointer to allocated shadow, it thinks that
    memory leaked.
    
    Use kmemleak_ignore() to tell kmemleak that this is not a leak and shadow
    memory doesn't contain any pointers.
