Say Y here if you want to enable the memory leak
detector. The memory allocation/freeing is traced in a way
similar to the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the
difference being that the orphan objects are not freed but
only shown in /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this
feature will introduce an overhead to memory
allocations. See Documentation/kmemleak.txt for more
details.
In order to access the kmemleak file, debugfs needs to be
mounted (usually at /sys/kernel/debug).
