smpboot: use kmemleak_not_leak for smpboot_thread_data
Kmemleak reports the following memory leak : [<ffffffc0002faef8>] create_object+0x140/0x274 [<ffffffc000cc3598>] kmemleak_alloc+0x80/0xbc [<ffffffc0002f707c>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x148/0x1d8 [<ffffffc00024504c>] __smpboot_create_thread.part.2+0x2c/0xec [<ffffffc0002452b4>] smpboot_register_percpu_thread+0x90/0x118 [<ffffffc0016067c0>] spawn_ksoftirqd+0x1c/0x30 [<ffffffc000200824>] do_one_initcall+0xb0/0x14c [<ffffffc001600820>] kernel_init_freeable+0x84/0x1e0 [<ffffffc000cc273c>] kernel_init+0x10/0xcc [<ffffffc000203bbc>] ret_from_fork+0xc/0x50 This memory allocated here points to smpboot_thread_data. Data is used as an argument for this kthread. This will be used when smpboot_thread_fn runs. Therefore, is not a leak. Call kmemleak_not_leak for smpboot_thread_data pointer to ensure that kmemleak doesn't report it as a memory leak.
